The Centre for Continuing Education is an entrepreneurial arm of the Faculty of Education which provides short courses, seminars, conferences and other activities in response to demand from professional and community groups. In so doing the faculty reaffirms the university's commitment to continuing education as expressed in its `Strategy for the future.'
Historically, continuing education activities have covered a variety of fields based on a broad interpretation of education.
The activities of the centre fall into a number of distinct areas: short courses, seminars, conferences, publications, home study programs, sponsorship of community education projects and research activities. All are offered at many locations throughout the metropolitan area as well as country Victoria.
The centre also runs a conference secretariat whereby it makes its services and staff available to any suitable organisation planning a conference or seminar anywhere in Australia. The conference secretariat is available to organise all aspects of conferences on a fee-for-service basis.
A brochure on the centre and its activities is available from the centre and inquires may be made by telephoning (03) 904 4240.
