Ulibarri Associate Dean: F. Ann Millner Location: Promontory Tower Telephone Contact: Jackie Nye, 626-6344 The Weber State College Division of Continuing Education (WSC DCE) offers more than 1,400 courses, seminars, workshops, and conferences each year to some 30,000 students. The Division works closely with college's academic departments and schools, and with professional, trade, and special interest associations and organizations. Through these efforts, WSC DCE is able to provide students with opportunities to study everything from accounting to zoology, and customer service to statistical process control. Weber State College Division of Continuing Education programs are designed with the following purpose in mind: Deliver quality education programs at times, at places, and in formats convenient to the needs of lifelong learners, including students interested in obtaining a college degree, career enhancement, or intellectual and cultural enrichment. The Division recognizes that most of its students have work, family, and other personal responsibilities which limit their participation in traditional college activities; therefore, convenience is a major factor in the design of WSC DCE programs. Most classes are conducted once a week, usually in three-hour sessions, for 10 weeks. Conferences, seminars, workshops, and special programs are typically presented full- time for two to five days providing intensive exposure to information and techniques in a given field. The locations for WSC DCE programs have also been selected for maximum convenience. The majority of the classes are taught on campus, but others are offered in community locations throughout the local area and the state of Utah. Other courses are presented at organizations interested in on-site training. Self-directed courses serve students in remote areas or those unable to travel. In addition, WSC DCE has international programs. These examples of flexible scheduling and convenient locations begin to address the needs of the Division of Continuing Education students. Since 1964, the Division of Continuing Education has contributed to the professional, cultural, and economic growth of local communities. The following is intended to introduce you to the many aspects of WSC DCE. Academic Credit Program Administrator: Christopher C Rivera The academic credit area presents more than 900 courses and programs annually, providing students the opportunity to pursue college degrees. Evening/Weekend School This program consists of traditional college courses offered at non-traditional times, i.e., after 4:30 p.m. and on Saturday. Through this program students can earn a bachelor's degree in 11 different areas, a bachelor of integrated studies, or an associate of science degree. Enrollments are over 17,000 each year in evening/weekend school. Off-Campus Credit Program Program Administrator: Terry E. Paskins; Associate Program Administrator: Elaine Sandoval Weber State College courses are offered at 13 different off-campus sites with enrollments of over 5,400 per year.

Currently, 150 students from Davis, Ogden, Weber, Morgan, and Box Elder school districts participate in the Early College program. Travel Study Program In cooperation with the Foreign Language Department, travel study programs have been designed to give students a first hand look at the places and the people they study. Mexico, France, Germany, and Spain have been among travel study destinations in past years. Independent Study Program The independent study program was specifically designed for students who can not attend regularly scheduled college courses. This program allows students to complete the course at home (or anywhere) at their own convenience. Over 1,000 students enroll in this self-paced, individualized mode of study each year.
