Learning Opportunities for Older Adults

Extended Education at the University of Manitoba has joined forces with the University of Alberta and Edmonton Lifelong Learning Association (ELLA), and the Lifelong Learning Centre (LLC) at the University of Regina to make available a broad range of online courses and programs geared to older adults. The courses range from short talks to full term.

    Age-friendly

    The University of Manitoba is an Age-Friendly University and part of the Age-Friendly University Global Network. A key component of an Age-Friendly University is lifelong learning – encouraging older adults to participate in educational programs, including access to online learning opportunities.
