Highly qualified facilitators are leading small groups of students in classroom settings and in online forums as part of a dynamic learning experience offered by Brock’s Centre for Adult Education and Community Outreach.

This fall, about 350 learners are expected to enroll in the Bachelor of Education (BEd) in Adult Education and Certificate in Adult Education part-time programs. Courses are offered both online and face-to-face at as many as 18 locations across Ontario.

The degree and certificate programs will enhance the knowledge and skills of aspiring and experienced educators of adults in a diverse range of academic, business and institutional settings or service sectors. Course topics focus on areas such as learning pedagogies, curriculum design, work-place organization, research and critical reflection.

Patsy Marshall, a facilitator in the Kitchener-Waterloo region since 2001, describes her experience as “building a community of learners.” And it’s a community, she adds, that forges relationships for years to come.
