Integration of part-time education and full-time education

Learning is a form of awakening. Life-long learning is not so much to do with the creation of an endless market (as it is often portrayed) as with responding to an awareness that all our knowing is limited, and that we grow only by being encouraged to venture ever further from our comfort zones.

We live in a world that is more dynamic than ever: technology is propelling changes in every sphere of life at breakneck speed. One of the most important and fundamental survival skills in the 21st century is the ability to adapt, change, and grow.

A planning priority will be to integrate part-time and full-time learning, providing ladders and pathways between them, access to transferable credits, and acquisition of seminary-awarded certificates as well as degrees.

Under new direction and subsequently a new name, Continuing Education will engage in a series of partnerships and offer a range of short courses. There will be a variety of delivery systems.
