How will the changes affect me and what support will be available to help me finish my current program?
If you are already halfway through a UProgram course, we will work with you to help you complete your program. We can offer alternative course options, and possibly independent study opportunities to ensure you can complete the program without disruption. Please contact ulearn@ucalgary.ca.
The transition to new courses will be gradual. Existing programs will be phased out over a period to allow current participants to complete their courses.
At this time, we do not plan to offer the previous UPrograms again. The focus is on providing new, updated courses that better align with the current needs of our campus community.
If a required course is no longer offered, we will provide alternative options such as equivalent courses or independent study opportunities to help you meet your program requirements. Please contact ulearn@ucalgary.ca.
