Educational providers are constantly developing new courses to help us stay up to date. Some college and university websites have a What’s New program and course listing which is very helpful. Others you would have to scan to see what fits your needs or call the program department and ask them what is new.

The following caught my eye this year, last year it was Cannabis Courses which are still there and have grown, this year cyber security seems to dominate  given all the press about meddling in elections, websites, social media. There were liberal arts courses that caught my eye as we need to understand our world as well as keep up with tech changes.  Try scanning these lists see what catches your eye.

Seneca’s program and course listings uses a drill down process (program area to program to course) which is more time consuming than scanning lists of programs that then link to a program area and courses which then link to a program area. Or call the program and ask.

Programs 

This section used a drill down process organized by program area, which is more time consuming to scan than a listing of programs or courses that have a link to program areas. 

Courses 

This course listing has a filter which allows you to choose mode of delivery (in class, online); academic term; days of the week, and campus location). This is very helpful as there over 400 courses to scan, especially days of the week, as often due to work and family commitments there is only one day of the week when you can go to class. 

Art History 

Coping with Death 

Geographic Information systems,  Arc View

Green Building Construction Practices 

Internet Mapping

By searching with What’s New in their Search Engine we found a lot of listings, these are some.

Program Area

We suggest you call programs and ask what it is new. If you would like a What’s New program and course listing let the continuing education department know. Sheridan and Durham seems to have stopped doing this as last year we could find a What’s New list but not this year.
