Flexible programs

on campus. downtown. online. At University of Calgary Continuing Education, all certificate programs have been developed with part-time learners in mind, making it possible for you to pace your program to fit your life. Given that most students have other significant time commitments, we recommend taking no more than two courses at one time. FLEXIBLE COURSE DELIVERY

Courses are offered in a variety of formats including classroom and online. Occasionally, courses are offered in a blended format — partially in the classroom and partially online. Some certificates are achieved completely in the classroom, others completely through online learning. Some certificate programs give you the choice of taking your courses in either format.

TAKING COURSES IN THE CLASSROOM

Continuing Education courses are held at the University of Calgary main and downtown campuses at times that are convenient for adult learners. Class times vary, depending on the program. University of Calgary Main Campus 2500 University Drive NW University of Calgary Downtown Campus 906 8th Avenue SW

TAKING COURSES ONLINE

Learning online takes the learning experience out of the traditional classroom and on to the Internet. Most of Continuing Education’s online courses are instructor-led, interactive courses. Students work within scheduled start- and enddates and observe set timelines for learning activities and assignments. For most courses, students are free to choose when they go online during the week. However, some courses require that students attend online classes on designated dates and at designated times. For courses that allow you to choose when you will go online, you should plan to log in to the University’s online learning software three to four times per week in order to keep pace with the class. You should plan on studying and working approximately six hours per week per course.

UNCERTAIN ABOUT ONLINE LEARNING?

Before taking your first instructorled, interactive online course, you will be required to take BMC 352 Learning Online. This course is your chance to practise online learning in a safe environment.

BMC 352 LEARNING ONLINE

Discover more about yourself as an online learner in a supportive environment and ultimately determine if online learning is for you. Compare your current skills, habits and technical knowledge against what’s typically required for success in Continuing Education online courses. Whatever your starting point, you will develop and improve your abilities to connect, communicate and collaborate with others online. If you have previously taken an online course, you may apply to have the BMC 352 Learning Online requirement waived. If you have previously taken BMC 152 Learning Online, you are not required to take BMC 352 Learning Online. Note: New sections of this course are added regularly as demand requires. For an up-todate list of currently offered sections, go to conted.ucalgary.ca/learningonline, or for access to the Learning Online Prerequisite Waiver Form, go to conted.ucalgary.ca/elearn/

David Rost, Graduate.

Human Resource Management Certificate. “For me, Continuing Education has been a bridge to the business world,” says David Rost, a recent graduate of the Human Resource Management Certificate program. “I decided I wanted to make a career transition. So, I started taking courses with Continuing Education.” Having graduated a few years earlier with a degree in physical education and coaching, and having gone on from there to complete an Occupational Health and Safety Certificate and a Canadian Registered Safety Professional designation, David wanted to transition into a new field. After two years of working toward the HR Management Certificate, he moved into an HR position at a local school board. “I believe I’m a better HR guy because of the learning I acquired in this program. It gives you a better appreciation for the machine of human resources and makes you better at your job.” David has since gone on to earn his Canadian Human Resource Professional designation.

Pop Culture: More Than Mindless Entertainment NEW

Philosophers might seem like the very last people to ask about money, since they are usually so bad at making it. But even Adam Smith himself, author of Wealth of Nations and father of capitalism, was a philosopher before he was an economist and had some surprising things to say about money and wealth. Smith was no outlier. Since at least Aristotle, philosophers have had interesting and provocative things to say about money. In this class, you will look at a few of them and discuss issues such as money and the nature of value, the ethics of wealth and charity, and moneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relationship to happiness. This will involve covering why Aristotle thought banking was evil, why Adam Smith thought ambition was a curse, and what a Nobel Prize winning economist has to say about how much it costs to be happy. COURSE: FIF 620 | 6 Hours | $75 + GST 001 | Sep 12 | S | 9 am - 4 pm | Main Instructor: David Dick, PhD

David Dick is an assistant professor of philosophy and fellow of the Canadian Centre for Advanced Leadership in Business (CCAL) in the Haskayne School of Business at the University of Calgary.

A FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH QUANTUM MYSTERIES NEW

HOW TO PREDICT AN ELECTION NEW

Saturday, September 19

Saturday, September 26

Saturday, October 3

Experience an exciting introduction to the primary characters and most important stories of ancient Greek and Roman mythology. Explore famous Olympians: Zeus, Apollo, Demeter, Persephone, Hermes, Dionysos, Aphrodite and others; and the Greek heroes: Theseus, Oedipus and Heracle. Discuss the most famous of all classical myths, the Trojan War and the Odyssey. Visit the Numismatics Collection in the Nickle Galleries to examine ancient Greek and Roman coins depicting mythological figures and events.

The 20th Century was a time of profound changes in our understanding of the physical world. While Einstein’s Theory of Relativity challenged our established notions of space, time and gravitation, the Quantum Revolution opened our eyes to a world of mysterious phenomena and apparent paradoxes — ones that we have no choice but to accept and make sense of! Did you know that certain tiny particles, such as electrons, can exist in different places at once and that it is possible to know either where they are, or how fast they are moving, but never both? In this course you will have a first taste of counterintuitive mysteries and paradoxes. These include quantum superposition (epitomized by the iconic “Schrödinger’s Cat” thought experiment), wave-particle duality, spooky coincidences between twin particles living far apart, and many other mind-bending phenomena. We will discuss technological and philosophical implications, and glimpse the history of the science. No prior knowledge of physics is required. Bring with you the most commonsense notions and watch them crumble under the weight of weird quantum phenomena!

Elections are exciting and dynamic events where political parties spend millions of dollars trying to motivate millions of voters to use their most basic democratic right: the right to vote. In the middle of a campaign, they can sometimes seem like forgone conclusions (for example, most Alberta provincial elections), and at other times seem like wild, unpredictable events. What do political scientists know about forecasting elections? You will review some of the most cutting edge research in political science on this very question. Are election results determined by the economy? How much does your sociodemographic profile affect how you mark your ballot? Can we predict the results in each riding based on national polls? You will spend some of the class time learning about the tools political scientists have developed to answer these questions, and the rest of the time you will learn how to apply them to the upcoming Canadian federal election.

one day @ ucalgary THE BERLIN WALL: TALES OF DIVISION AND UNITY NEW Saturday, October 17 The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 was a significant turning point in world history, not only marking the end of the Cold War but a new chapter in international democratic freedoms. But how can we explain the building of such a dividing monument? How can we account for its fall in 1989? And how does the Wall influence our lives today? Commemorating the twentyfifth anniversary of the unification of Germany, this one-day course will examine the historical context of Cold War Europe and the intimate stories of the people whose lives were affected by the rise and fall of the Wall. In addition to the lectures, students will be exposed to recently declassified archival documents and multimedia from the Checkpoint Charlie Museum in Berlin as well as guest speakers who grew up in divided Germany. COURSE: FIF 619 | 6 Hours | $75 + GST 001 | Oct 17 | S | 9 am - 4 pm | Main Campus Instructor: William Mikkel Dack

TECHNOCREEP: THE SURRENDER OF PRIVACY AND THE CAPITALIZATION OF INTIMACY Saturday, October 31 Technology has started to move into a new, and very creepy phase. Wheels are turning within wheels and information is flowing in ways that most people don’t understand. We’ve heard a lot about government surveillance, but what businesses are doing may be even more disturbing. For example, you look up a product on Amazon and suddenly it’s showing up as an ad on your Facebook Page. Your eyeballs have just been sold to the highest bidder, through a little known system called FBX (Facebook Exchange). Or, you walk down Main Street USA at Walt Disney World and smell cookies baking. What you actually smell is a chemical pumped into the air by a patented machine called The Smellitzer. You’ve just been hit by scent marketing. Stores and shopping malls are starting to use cameras to track your movements and mine data from where you linger, what you look at, and especially, what you pick up but don’t purchase. COURSE: FIF 612 | 6 Hours | $75 + GST 003 | Oct 31 | S | 9 am - 4 pm | Main Campus Instructor: Thomas Keenan FCIPS, I.S.P., ITCP

PERSONALITY PSYCHOLOGY: THE SCIENCE OF WHO WE ARE Saturday, November 7 What have scientists learned about human personality? What are the basic personality characteristics? Why are people so different? Is it due to nature or nurture? Do animals have personality? How did personality differences evolve? How do personality traits matter to our health, relationships, work, politics and religion? Complete a personality inventory to learn about your own personality or that of a person you know well.

POP CULTURE: MORE THAN MINDLESS ENTERTAINMENT NEW

MYTHS AND MENTAL ILLNESS

Saturday, November 14

Saturday, November 21

Saturday, November 28

Does jealousy rather than love make the world go round? Is jealousy the prime social emotion? Does it help to make us better people and better citizens? This is what course instructor Peter Toohey argued, controversially, in his recent defence of the emotion in his book, Jealousy. You will examine the nature and history of the emotion of jealousy, in society, in literature and art, and in history. Some of the topics covered will be: jealousy versus envy, the psychology of jealousy, jealousy in art, sexual jealousy in society, jealousyfree societies, the history of jealousy, jealousy in the family, jealousy and creativity, jealousy in business and politics, and finally, should we even try to avoid jealousy?

Most adults spend a great deal of leisure time engaging with pop culture. We watch our favourite shows or go to movies because we enjoy them, but does that mean they are mindless entertainment? Can fiction teach its audience something about serious, real-life issues? If so, does pop culture educate or miseducate? Or, can it do both? Many people have accepted the idea that pop culture influences children and youth. Much less attention has been directed to the same possibility for adults. Explore how TV shows, movies, and songs teach their adult audiences about important issues. We will use the television show Grey’s Anatomy as an example. Viewing segments of it together, we will identify some of the real-life issues that are raised in the show; how the show represents those issues through characters, storylines, and settings; impressions and lessons that are created for and by viewers; the importance of emotions in audience members’ responses; and how viewers might respond in new and different — and more critical — ways. Following the viewing and discussion of Grey’s Anatomy, you will have opportunities to consider and share examples of other pop culture texts that you know and love.

Identify, discuss and debunk mental health myths and why mental illnesses are viewed differently than physical illnesses. Mental disorders affect about one in five individuals - meaning we are all impacted either personally or through our family or friends. Despite how common mental disorders are what do we really know about them? We will discuss what a mental disorder is and why it is hard to define as well as how mental health professionals decide what is “normal” and “abnormal”. We will also consider the role of culture and how our social norms impact our understanding of “abnormal” behavior.

Kaela Jubas is an associate professor in adult learning at the University of Calgary. She has been at UCalgary since 2008, and received her PhD from the University of British Columbia in 2009.

SYSTEMS THINKING: CREATIVE SOLUTIONS TO COMPLEX PROBLEMS NEW

UNDERSTANDING THE POWER OF COLLABORATION NEW

Why do so many CEOs believe that creativity is the most important leadership quality for success in business? It’s because creative leaders can generate real benefits for an organization: better systems and relationships, innovations in products and services, more effective marketing and promotion, and inventive solutions. In this engaging hands-on seminar, experience a variety of tools and strategies that allow you to unleash more of your creative potential, while tapping into the creative best of the individuals and teams you lead.

Peter Senge, a leading researcher in the fields of systems thinking and organizational learning, defines systems thinking as both a thinking skill and a language for understanding and working with complexity. When you understand the complexity of a situation, you are better able to think and act in ways that produce desired results, without causing harmful side effects. In this seminar, learn a unique approach to systems thinking as a method and tool for working with change, solving complex problems, and creating individual and team learning.

Topics

· Organizational and environmental factors that enhance creativity · Strategies for removing personal and organizational barriers to creativity · The benefits of individual and collaborative creativity practices · Attitudes that result in creative breakthroughs · How highly creative groups generate ideas and make decisions · Tools for generating creative ideas during problem solving and or product development · Strategies for addressing the challenge of introducing creativity to individuals and groups that may be initially resistant · Process for using story-telling as a prompt to greater creativity

· Five disciplines of a learning organization · Concepts of systems, systems thinking, complexity and their implications for the workplace · Explaining specific types of systems, called archetypes · Applying systems thinking to a challenging situation and opportunity · Developing an action plan

Collaboration is recognized as a vital skill for leaders who want to succeed in organizations today, but it is also an area where theory and practice are often far apart. Just because you call a group of people a team does not mean that they will work collaboratively.

business seminars CREATIVE NEGOTIATING Conflicts occur between management and labour, buyer and seller, between colleagues, and frequently, between managers in the same organization. Managers and employees may compete for financial and human resources; they may be in conflict over the policies and goals of the organization; or who has the authority to make decisions. Negotiation is a method to resolve conflict to reach an agreement that benefits both sides while recognizing that each side will protect its own self-interest. In this seminar, you will be introduced to the Creative Negotiating approach and steps in the negotiating process.

Topics · Hard, soft and creative negotiating; What are the differences? · Principles of Creative Negotiating · Steps in the negotiating process · Clarifying interests, issues and positions · Measuring the outcomes of the negotiation · Power in the negotiating relationship · Alternatives to negotiating · Communication skills in negotiating · Dealing with your stakeholders COURSE: BUS 275 | 7 Hours | $355 + GST 003 | Nov 23 | M | 8:30 am - 4:30 pm | Downtown Instructor: Nadine Ryan-Bannerman, MEd (Adult Education), ACC Certificate for Emerging Leaders topic area: Personal Effectiveness

DEALING WITH THE DIFFICULT CONVERSATION

DEVELOPING HIGH PERFORMANCE TEAMS

The difficult conversation is stressful; it feels like an invisible minefield. It could be about telling someone that you are upset; giving bad news; or telling your manager, co-worker, or family member that they have done something that distresses you. The problem with these difficult conversations is that we spend more time worrying about them than engaging in them. Consequently, we either ‘blow it,’ put the conversations off too long, or avoid them altogether. This session presents ways to handle difficult discussions with skill and confidence. Learn an assertive, yet respectful method for discussing concerns with others. This method works well for giving constructive feedback, getting your views heard in tense situations, and encouraging others to change behaviour. Practise the method in a friendly environment using sample situations or your own challenges. Build awareness of success factors and bear-traps in difficult conversations, gain tools for engaging in difficult conversations and develop greater clarity about what not to say, as well as what to say and how to say it and learn how to change the behaviour of others by what you say and do.

Many factors can affect the performance of a team. Changes in team members, new leaders, reorganization, and new requirements can all create pressure and result in lower productivity, confusion and conflict. This seminar will provide the knowledge and skills required for both leaders and team members to build and maintain high performance teams. These are teams where results are supported by effective team decision making and communication as well as individual accountability and alignment. Learn how to diagnose your team’s functional ability and plan and deliver focused improvement strategies. As a result you will be able to put your team on the road to high performance and also develop your skill as a leader.

Topics · A special kind of listening · Headspace talk for success or sabotage · Perspective: who and what is this all about? · Success factors: before you begin, during, and after · Turning up the heat: what to do in open conflict · The model: walkthrough and practice · Topics from participants

business seminars DO LESS AND ACHIEVE MORE: ZONE OF OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE Traditionally, ‘the zone’ has been seen as the domain of athletes, artists, scientists, and high-level corporate achievers. Yet in today’s new era of creativity and innovation, every leader needs to be able to access his or her own zone of optimal performance and create environments for others to do the same. Competitive advantage comes from differentiation. It’s not only about what you do in the workplace but how you do it. When you’ve got that edge, you shine. And that shine comes from your ability to stay energized. Instead of multi-tasking and becoming drained, focus on the vital actions that really matter. Learn how to activate your inner intelligence so that everything you do becomes effortless and seamless. Drawing on insights from brain and creativity research, sports psychology, and multi-media presentations, this seminar provides you with the knowledge and tools for managing your mind, resources, and talents effectively to produce greater results in less time. Psychological research reveals that this state of flow is natural and leads to success. It’s easy. This seminar is spaced to allow for one day to apply knowledge and techniques learned in the ‘zone lab.’

Topics · Leaders and teams in the zone · Energy management to optimize your, and your team’s, performance · Core strategies for working smart, not hard (save one hour a day) · Identifying the vital few actions to achieve the results you want · The art of focus: parallel-tasking instead of multi-tasking to manage multiple projects · Creativity techniques for generating great ideas and solutions in a flash

EFFECTIVE WRITING IN THE WORKPLACE From daily email demands to reports and proposals, clear written communication is the common currency of the workplace. Invariably, this communication takes place within a frenetic, fast-paced environment. Many in the workforce find their communication demands increasing exponentially yet have no in-house support. This workshop is designed to provide that support. In a friendly, relaxed workshop environment, you will practise your writing and editing skills, addressing key issues surrounding communication in the workplace.

Topics · How do I get started writing? · How can I speed up the writing process? · How can I become more flexible in the way I approach diverse writing challenges? · Do I really need to understand grammar to become a better writer at work? · How do I make my writing as concise and clear as possible? · How can I confidently fix sentences that don’t convey the meaning I want them to convey? · How can I develop a written voice that is appropriate for a number of work-related situations? · Is there an easy way to know what punctuation would be appropriate in specific sentences? · What kinds of writing flaws should I be looking for when I proofread my writing and the written work of others?

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE Emotional Intelligence (EI, EQ) is said to be two times more important than our intellectual intelligence (IQ) or technical competence. Time Magazine says: “IQ gets you hired but EQ gets you promoted.” The terms of reference about what constitutes personal and professional competence have changed. Today, we need to integrate intellectual and emotional intelligence to make positive things happen in our lives, our families, and our organizations or communities. Dr. June Donaldson’s emotional intelligence model is called Emotional SMARTS®. It discusses the A,B,C, and D of staying emotionally smart; being grounded, centered, and focused, particularly during times of change, challenge, conflict, and uncertainty. ‘A’ relates to awareness skills; ‘B,’ behaviours; ‘C,’ contact or connection skills; and ‘D,’ decision-making — all critical life and work skills and competencies.

Topics · Emotional SMARTS® in terms of how you manage yourself and your interactions with others · Four Emotional SMARTS® cornerstones that form the foundation of emotional intelligence and wellness · Individual performance in the 16 characteristics that underpin the four cornerstones · Skills and competencies to enhance one’s Emotional SMARTS®, both personally and professionally COURSE: BUS 127 | 7 Hours | $355 + GST 029 | Oct 14 | W | 8:30 am - 4:30 pm | Main Instructor: June Donaldson, MBA, EdD, Mediator/Arbitrator Certificate for Emerging Leaders topic area: Personal Effectiveness

GET ORGANIZED! IMPROVE YOUR WORKFLOW AND BOOST YOUR PRODUCTIVITY Keeping up with constant demands on your time, attention and energy takes its toll. The typical office worker will experience up to 170 interactions or distractions per day and has a backlog of 200-300 hours of incomplete work. Many are overwhelmed by too many responsibilities, emails and interruptions. Multi-tasking in an effort to stay afloat never allows people to step off this treadmill long enough to get organized. Instead, they try to solve everything by working faster and longer in a world that shows no signs of slowing down. Effective workflow is about the art of choices, actions, attention and energy, balanced with a workflow system that will support you as you navigate through the day. This seminar offers strategies and solutions to eliminate productivity roadblocks, leading to better selfmanagement and productivity.

IMPROVING COMMUNICATION AT WORK What is your preferred communication style: get-to-the-point, fact based, analytical, or warm, chatty and personal? Do you prefer work conversations that are direct, deal with the main issue and move on? Or, do you prefer to warm up a bit first, establish rapport, and then move into the topic at hand? These and other communication traits can make communicating in the workplace a challenging task. Have you ever been in a meeting and found yourself wishing people would just get to the point? Ever wish that some of your colleagues were more tactful and diplomatic? Has your boss ever told you that you need to speak up and contribute more in meetings? Do you find that your colleague’s eyes glaze over when you are giving a report? Communication style can be as much a foreign language as any other spoken language. In this powerful one day course, using DiSC®, you will learn about communication styles most commonly used at work, identify your own preferred style, and discuss strategies and tips to understand and communicate more effectively with those whose styles are different than yours.

Topics · The DiSC® communication style model · Determining your own communication style preferences · Identifying other communication style preferences · Increasing your communication style flexibility COURSE: BUS 188 | 7 Hours | $355 + GST 014 | Oct 7 | W | 8:30 am - 4:30 pm | Downtown Instructor: Patricia Pitsel, PhD Certificate for Emerging Leaders topic area: Communication

LEADING WITH CULTURAL INTELLIGENCE

LEADING YOURSELF AND OTHERS THROUGH CHANGE

One-fifth of Canada’s population was born outside of Canada. Many first- and second-generation immigrants are influenced heavily by their own cultural values. As Canada continues to become more diverse, cross-cultural communication is becoming integral to effective and sustainable business practices. Implementing cultural awareness and cross-cultural communication strategies maximizes the value of client and employee relationships, while enhancing recruitment retention efforts. Understanding cultural differences creates awareness that allows individuals to perform their jobs in a more meaningful, impactful, effective and profitable way. Discuss how to recruit, negotiate, market manage and communicate crossculturally to enhance productivity and profitability, and create a healthier and happier workplace.

While organizations have spent a great deal of time on the project implementation side of change, they still struggle with the human element. Organizational restructuring, company mergers and acquisitions, technology implementations, software upgrades, process improvements and other big changes in the workplace can result in unforeseen problems, as well as frustration, confusion and tension among staff. Recognizing that change is an inevitable part of today’s workplace, this seminar is an opportunity to discuss change and the best road to successful outcomes. The focus will be on minimizing the negative effects of change. You will walk away from this seminar equipped with new tools and strategies to help you plan, implement and reinforce your next change effort, greatly improving your chances for smooth and successful change.

Topics

· Types of change · Change models · Components of successful change initiatives · Building resilience during change · Planning and implementing successful change initiatives · Techniques to identify and minimize resistance to change · Reinforcing new behaviours and processes

business seminars THE DECISIVE LEADER NEW

TIME MANAGEMENT

Making decisions is one of the main functions of a leader, and the quality of those decisions is one of the primary ways a leader’s effectiveness is judged. It is common for leaders to panic and either rush into a poor decision or become paralyzed and not make one at all. The Question, Factors, Options, Decision (QFOD) model for decision making is simple to use and provides a framework to make better decisions. Learn how to use the model by working through examples, then discuss how to communicate decisions to your supervisor or team. Both deliberate and rapid decisions will be covered, as well as how to ensure lessons are incorporated from previous similar decisions. As a leader – give yourself the best possible chance to make decisions that are as good as they can be.

It is often difficult to devote sufficient time to the duties and responsibilities of one’s job. This seminar is designed to provide a portfolio of practical techniques for organizing your time to yield better results in the same amount of time, or the same results in less time. Participants will analyze their own time management problems, participate in experiential learning exercises that highlight effective time management techniques, and learn specific approaches to solving time management problems.

Topics · An introduction to decision making. · Differences between good and bad decisions · Question, Factors, Options, Decision (QFOD) model for decision-making. · Quick decision-making model · Case study and live example · Presenting your decisions to others · After action review process — how to make an even better decision next time

How did the British become the paramount power on the Indian subcontinent in what is now India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh? How did a trading company evolve into an imperial power? From the mid-18th to the mid-19th century, the massive empire was ostensibly ruled by the East India Company, a monopoly, which had been granted in 1600 by Queen Elizabeth I. Examine the mercantile, political and military influences that the company brought to the cultural, societal, political and geographical milieu of the subcontinent. Discuss events prior to the 1857 Indian ‘Mutiny’ through to 1858 when Queen Victoria and the British parliament formally assumed direct government of India. Topics include: geography and demography, India and orientalism, decline of the Mughal Empire, creation of the Company Raj, colonial rule and Indian society, implications of British social and economic policy, Sati and Thagi, the Indian ‘mutiny’ of 1857-1858, and postrebellion India.

NORTH AMERICAN NATIVE ART HISTORY AND THEORY NEW

WOMEN IN THE ANCIENT WORLD NEW

Did you know that Franz Kafka, Robert Louis Stevenson and Henry Fielding were all trained as lawyers? Did you ever wonder why Charles Dickens, Jonathon Swift and Herman Melville focussed so much of their writing on lawyers and the legal process?

This course will take a non-technical overview of the various intersections of law and lawyers in western literature -- and will include a look at where Canadian authors, such as legally trained Andrew Pyper and social commentator Margaret Atwood, fit into the mix.

What do the carved figures on a totem pole represent? What are the figures on the outside of Plains Indian teepees?

Topics include: a brief history of preColumbian art, history of contemporary Native American fine art movements, architectural fundamentals, major native and First Nations’ cultural areas of North America, native philosophy, sacred objects, and how music plays a part in the creation of the art.

To what extent were women’s lives circumscribed in male-dominated societies and how did they manage to play major, eye-catching roles in all walks of life? We will survey women’s lives with an emphasis on Classical Greece and Rome, from Egyptian and biblical times to Roman and Byzantine times. Biographical studies of famous women such as Cleopatra, Sappho, colourful Roman and Byzantine empresses, Christian martyrs and ministers and the women in Jesus’ life, will correlate with such topics as women’s contributions to art, literature, and science, and how they were regarded in male-written literature.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS You must be at least 18 years of age to enrol in a Continuing Education course or certificate program unless otherwise specified, as in the case of a program designed specifically for youth. For most certificate programs, a minimum of a senior high school diploma and work experience are recommended, but not required. The Certificate in Video Game Development for Secondary School Students only accepts students from 13 to 16 years of age. If English is not your first language, please review the English language proficiency requirements at conted.ucalgary.ca; click on Forms and Policies; then English Language Requirements. If you have any questions, please contact an advisor at 403.220.2866.

GETTING STARTED I n most programs, you can take courses first and enrol in the certificate later. You can apply for credit for those courses that you have successfully completed and which meet the current certificate requirements. However, as programs are subject to change, we recommend you apply for admission to the certificate as early as possible. Once you are admitted, you can be confident that you have locked in the requirements leading to your graduation.

GRADING

LADDERING TO A DEGREE

Student learning is assessed through assignments and examinations, and grades are assigned for each course in a program of study. Most certificate programs follow the grading standards established for undergraduate instruction at the University of Calgary.

It is possible to use some certificate programs as a stepping stone towards an undergraduate degree if you can meet the faculty’s entrance requirements for undergraduate students.

I n the Certificate for Emerging Leaders, student learning is assessed through the evaluation of a summary paper that is submitted following completion of the required number of instructional hours. In the Office Applications Certificate, student learning is assessed through examinations completed at the end of each course in the program of study.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR CERTIFICATE REQUIREMENTS Certificate requirements shown in this publication or at conted.ucalgary.ca are the requirements that a new student must follow to graduate. Because certificate programs are reviewed and updated on a regular basis, the requirements listed here may be different from previous or future years. For you to successfully complete a certificate program, you must meet the requirements that are ‘locked in’ and noted on your student record when you are admitted to the program. Once you have been admitted — to be sure you are always choosing courses that can be credited toward your certificate — it is best to view the requirements outlined on your personal record at My ContEd.

Several 300-hour Continuing Education certificate programs can be applied to a Minor in Workplace Learning which will be accepted by the U of C Faculty of Arts, Faculty of Science and Faculty of Kinesiology. To earn the Minor in Workplace Learning, students must also complete the course, ADL 107 Learning in the Workplace, and additional specified courses for a total of 400 hours of instruction.

FRENCH LANGUAGE AND CULTURE 140 or 280 Hours 403.220.2952 language@ucalgary.ca ucalgary.ca/french The French Language and Culture certificates provide university recognition for programs of study in French as a second language (FSL). These programs meet the needs of individuals who wish to expand their French language skills to increase their professional qualifications, prepare for travel, and gain a better cultural understanding of bilingual Canada and the Frenchspeaking world. Two certificate levels, composed of Continuing Education courses, are offered. The Certificate in French Language and Culture — FSL Foundations is ideal for the beginner learners of French language. It provides students with a solid base of grammar and oral skills required for communication in French. The Certificate in French Language and Culture — FSL Intermediate is for individuals who already possess basic communication skills in French. This program builds on the French language skills acquired in the FSL Foundations Certificate, or through previous learning. More advanced Continuing

Education courses equip learners with a solid base of grammatical structures as well as the oral skills necessary to communicate fluently in French. Each of these certificate programs can be completed in approximately one and a half years. Students who take both certificates will be able to complete their whole program in less than three years. These estimates are based on a student taking at least one course per session. Before enrolling in this certificate, students must complete the University of Calgary Continuing Education course FRE 100 French I or its equivalent. If you have previous knowledge of French and would like to begin at a higher level than French I, you must have a placement interview. Like all Continuing Education programs, these certificates have been developed with part-time learners in mind. Courses are classroom-based and are offered in the evenings at the University of Calgary Main Campus. Immersion weekends are held off-campus. All courses include final examinations. Students who successfully complete the FSL Foundations certificate can move directly into the FSL Intermediate level. Courses for this program start on page 50.

Bali

BALI AND SINGAPORE Bali is an island paradise known for its unparalleled natural beauty: beaches, reefs, waterfalls, tropical forests and mountains. Part of the Indonesian Archipelago, it is also known for the arts — traditional and modern dance, sculpture, painting and music. On our visit to Bali, we will trek and climb to view beautiful waterfalls, hike into the jungle to explore a monkey habitat, attend world-class performances, visit ancient temples and, of course, catch a few rays of sunshine on gorgeous beaches. We will savour the richness of Balinese cuisine — a bounty of fresh vegetables, fruits, meats and fish laced with an abundance of spices. We then shift to Singapore, the spotless city-state at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula. One of the world’s largest commercial centres, Singapore is also a lush oasis. We will cruise the Singapore River, explore colourful gardens and delve into its history. Along the way we will discover why Singaporean chefs consistently bring home top awards from international culinary events. Their meticulous technique combined with the colour and flavour of Singaporean ingredients and the influence of Malaysia and China create beautiful — and amazingly tasty — dishes. Prepare for two weeks of paradise in Bali and Singapore.

YELLOWKNIFE: AURORA BOREALIS AT ITS BEST Ancient Inuit believed that the aurora borealis was the torches of spirits guiding souls to a land of happiness and plenty. First Nations peoples along the Pacific Coast thought that auroras were the cooking fires of Eskimos boiling whale blubber. Auroras have inspired countless colourful stories and legends; their shifting curtains of green, red and purple light, pulsating across a blackened star-filled sky,

Yellowknife, the capital city of the Northwest Territories, lies under the magical Auroral Oval where northern lights occur on 100 percent of nights when it’s dark enough to see the displays. Auroras are most intense around the autumn and spring equinoxes so our tour in March is at an optimal time. As well, the month of March has the greatest percentage of clear skies, the least amount of winter snowfall, and the warmest winter temperatures — a time when it’s truly energizing to be outside in nature.

TURKEY AND GREECE: EXPLORING THE EASTERN AEGEAN The Aegean Sea, lying between modern Greece and Turkey, was perhaps the most important stretch of water in all of the ancient world. The Greeks arrived on its western shores at the beginning of the second millennium BCE and were firmly settled in fortified citadels like Athens and Mycenae by the time they ventured east across the Aegean to lay siege to the city of Troy. Two centuries later they began migrating across the islands to what is now the west coast of Turkey, where they established colonies to exploit the agricultural and mineral riches of the area. These settlements became some of the most important Greek cities: Miletos, the centre of philosophy and learning in the 6th century BCE; the island of Kos, home to the 4th century physician Hippocrates; and Ephesos, re-founded by one of Alexander the Great’s generals and destined to become the capital of the Roman Empire’s province of Asia. Here were located two of the seven ancient wonders of the world – the Temple of Artemis at Ephesos and the Mausoleum of Halicarnassos — and three cities, all within a few miles of each other, that boasted the three largest temples of the ancient world. The Aegean was also at the very centre of early Christianity: both the Apostle John and Jesus’ mother Mary lived in Ephesos, and the former wrote the last book of the New Testament — Revelations — in a cave on Samos; St Paul’s Seven Churches of Asia flourished here. The Emperor Constantine’s new capital on the Bosporus became one of the great cities of the world and the preserver of the classical heritage of Greece and Rome; and the Crusaders passed through on their way to the Holy Land, and subsequently built formidable castles at Bodrum and Kos to try to limit the westward expansion of the Ottoman Turks. Our tour through the south eastern quadrant of the Aegean will take us to these historic places, as well as to remote islands, villages of white-washed houses, and sandy beaches and isolated

coves for swimming. We’ll eat in typical tavernas and elegant restaurants, and taste the regional wines. And you will have plenty of time to shop in bazaars and markets for Turkish carpets, leather jackets, bronze utensils, and local delicacies. Most of our travelling will be on a private motor-sailer, called a gulet by the Turks: the comfortable twin and double cabins have portholes, air conditioning, and private toilets and showers; there is a large salon with a bar, but most of our time on board is spent under the awnings of an immense outdoor lounge, where we will also have our meals. For those who have never visited Istanbul, and for those who cannot visit it too often, we have designed an optional threeday advance program to give you the experience of one of the world’s greatest cities, bridging the traditions of Europe and Asia.

travel study in memoires, poetry and fiction. This travel study brings together both of these approaches to truly understand what was. Through visits to sites and museums, we will come into direct contact with the everyday objects and the places experienced by combattants. We will also explore some of the most important and evocative writing of wartime experiences.

THE FIRST WORLD WAR IN WORDS AND WALKS A century after the War to End All Wars — World War One (1914-1918) — what remains? How can we better understand these events, which continue to shape our own world? One way is to enter the landscapes of England, Belgium and France to experience the physical remains of those events; to stand at the edge of a mine crater, to look up at the ridge near Vimy that Canadians assaulted in 1917, or to walk the trenches which still exist there. Another way is to hear the words of the men and women who tried to capture what the war meant for them,

London’s Imperial War Museum offers an irreplaceable collection of artifacts of WWI. We will explore the war museum prior to travelling to the landscapes of the Western Front. We will visit the sites of important Canadian actions in the war, such as the Somme, BeaumontHamel, Vimy Ridge, Passchendaele and the Ypres Salient. Our own experience of place will be supplemented with the words of selected British and Canadian authors and poets including Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen, Ivor Gurney, Rebecca West, and Vera Brittain, along with Timothy Findley, Jane Urquhart, Joseph Boyden, and Michael Winter.

THE GREAT BEAR RAINFOREST: SPIRIT BEARS, GRIZZLIES AND ANCIENT FORESTS The temperate rainforests are among the richest habitats on Earth; supporting more life than their tropical counterparts. The largest expanse of these ancient forests stretches along the verdant coastline of British Columbia. Migrating salmon and hungry coastal bears go together like popcorn and the movies, and the Great Bear Rainforest is one of the world’s best places to witness this primordial drama. British Columbia, with roughly 150,000 black bears and 15,000 grizzly bears shuffling through its forested wild lands, is home to the largest combined population of these two bears in the world. Here, in the cool, shadowed woodlands of the coast, you can also find a rare white subspecies of the American black bear. Scientists call this enigmatic ursine carnivore the Kermode bear, but First Nations people know it as the ‘spirit bear.’ Our quest on this trip will be to experience the rich biological diversity of an overlooked corner of Canada, while at the same time experiencing exciting bearviewing, bald eagles and gulls squabbling

MOUNTAIN MOOSE AND AUTUMN COLOUR In September, the air is refreshingly crisp and the aspen forests of the foothills of the Rockies are ablaze with golden foliage. This is the season of the moose when 400-kilogram bulls challenge each other for the right to breed. Every year, in the front range of the mountains, less than 200 kilometres from Calgary, moose gather in frost-encrusted meadows to reenact this primordial spectacle. As well, roadside grizzlies and black bears are fattening for hibernation, bighorn sheep are sleek and winterready, and bull trout are spawning. For naturalist Wayne Lynch, the moose is the most impressive animal in the Rocky Mountains. It is the largest member of the deer family but surprisingly difficult

to glimpse let alone to observe intimate courtship behaviour. In mid-September, in the open meadows of Spray Valley, Peter Lougheed, and Elbow-Sheep Wildland Provincial Parks, it’s possible to watch moose on many mornings materialize out of the mist. There are huge bulls with racks spanning two metres and weighing 27 kilograms, cows in heat, juveniles and calves all sloshing together in the mud and willows. At times, as many as a dozen moose may gather at the same location. Add to this exciting scene the blush of a golden sunrise as it paints the surrounding peaks and you have a wildlife spectacle not to be forgotten. Accommodation throughout will be at the Mount Engadine Lodge. COURSE: TRA 180

WILD ARGENTINA & CHILE WITH EASTER ISLAND EXTENSION Supporting the vast bulk of South America is a great wedge of continent called Patagonia. Here, at the southern tip of Argentina and Chile, giant waves, born on the shores of Antarctica, assault wild rocky beaches. Clusters of black and white penguins pitch and porpoise in the roiling surf and then shuffle ashore. Here also, great tracts of grasslands, brightened with colourful patches of wildflowers, sweep beneath immense cerulean skies and nurture exotic creatures with exotic names such as gauanaco, rhea, tinamou, huemul and mara. And above it all rise the chiselled flanks of the mighty Andes and the windswept wings of the largest flying creature on earth, the

magnificent Andean condor. One of the great scenic spectacles in Patagonia is Fitz Roy Massif, in Parque National Los Glaciares in southern Argentina. Seeing that cluster of peaks for the first time, most people are deeply impressed by their raw jaggedness and the steepness of their granite flanks. The indigenous people called Fitzroy “ the smoking mountain” because of the mantle of cloud that often enshrouds its summit. Easter Island Extension No other island in the Pacific has generated the historical excitement, ecological speculation and strong tourism interest of Easter Island. The island’s iconic stone heads, averaging four metres in height and 12 tonnes in weight, are recognized the world over. The story of how ancient Polynesians colonized this isolated speck of land, thrived, and then succumbed to environment collapse offers a fascinating glimpse at humanity and a poignant travel experience. It’s little wonder that Easter Island is frequently listed by travel magazines as one of the ‘must-see’ destinations in the world. COURSE: TRA 165

TANZANIA AND THE SERENGETI PLAINS HARP SEAL HELICOPTER ADVENTURE In the world of nature, no animal exemplifies cuteness more than a newborn harp seal pup. Its large black eyes, curious unwary nature, and spotless white fur make it a universal symbol for innocence and vulnerability and since the 1970s, a magnet for Eco tourists. Each year, for two to three weeks, the sea ice near Quebec’s Magdalen Islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence is home to hundreds of thousands of pregnant harp seals that come to the area, each to give birth and nurse their single pup. Landing by helicopter on the featureless sea ice surrounded by thousands of pups vocally imploring their mothers to nurse them is a nature experience like no other. COURSE: TRA 179

The Serengeti ecosystem is arguably one of the greatest wildlife areas in the world. Here, in an annual spectacle unmatched on the planet, 1.5 million wildebeests, 200,000 plains zebras and 250, 000 Thomson’s gazelles drift back and forth across the African savannah in search of the vital green flush of grass that follows the seasonal rains. In February each year, these life-giving rains transform the southern Serengeti in Tanzania into verdant grassland and the great herds gather there to give birth to a new generation. In the short span of a few weeks, half a million wobbly wildebeest calves struggle to gain their balance in the tenuous first minutes of life. We will be there to witness this breath-taking natural wonder. With the newborns come the uninvited dinner guests: lithe tawny lions, fleetfooted cheetahs, rapacious hyenas, cunning jackals and flights of hungry vultures. Add to this wilderness marvel, scores of multi-coloured birds, the
