Welcome to our Division of Continuing Education
“Education is simply the soul of a society as it passes from one generation to the other” – G.K Chesterton.
We believe that learning is a never ending process; and our mission is to be as inclusive as possible with regards to availing opportunities for education and sharing knowledge with the public. Our continuing education division consists of non credit bearing short courses, seminars, monthly talks and public lectures.
Public lectures, seminars/ workshops and monthly talks.
Every month the College invites experts from various disciplines to educate and discuss with the public issues pertinent to mental health, and other issues relevant to the zeitgeist of today.
We also have public lectures and seminars/workshops to further allow for the opportunity to interact with the public and share ideas on how best to transform and educate ourselves on issues of mental health.
