Newfoundlanders and Labradorians needn’t be Memorial University students to study here.

A newly launched Continuous Adult and Lifelong Learning (CALL) website makes browsing more than 500 courses, diplomas, certificates, seminars and even youth camps easier than ever. 

Whether you're looking for professional development tailored to your current job, searching for summer camps for your kids, want to learn a new language before your next vacation or have recently retired and always wanted to pursue a personal interest like creative writing, the CALL database is a one-stop hub to help hone your search for new skills and knowledge. 

CALL’s ultimate purpose is to reinforce Memorial University’s special commitment to support the education of Newfoundlanders and Labradorians, at every stage of life.

Memorial’s continuing education offerings are as wide-ranging as agile project management, film studies and finance fundamentals. 

Access other universities' courses through Memorial  

In addition to Memorial’s offerings, CALL has begun forming partnerships with other educational institutions to expand its catalogue.  

Most recently, Memorial partnered with the Ontario College of Art and Design University (OCAD U).

The partnership gives the province's residents easy access to online courses in art, media and design. 

“Partnerships like these are designed to expand and strengthen Memorial University’s commitment to providing diverse and accessible learning opportunities for the people of Newfoundland and Labrador,” said Dr. Ailsa Craig, special advisor to the president on continuing education. 

“From graphic design, animation and digital media to photography and painting, OCAD U’s programming caters to both personal enrichment and professional development, ensuring accessibility for learners in rural and remote areas.” 

Discount available

To make the new opportunities even more appealing, participants can use the discount code ‘MemorialU25’ during registration to receive $25 off any OCAD U course. 

The online partner offerings are available to all residents of Newfoundland and Labrador, regardless of their previous educational background.  

“Memorial has strong offerings in professional development and industrial training, and this partnership adds to that while speaking to the creative spark in our province,” Dr. Craig said. “We have a thriving creative economy in Newfoundland and Labrador, and it makes sense to support that through a partnership that expands professional and creative learning opportunities in the creative arts.”
