Develop your professional knowledge and skills through Distance Learning
@ UVic

The Cultural Resource Management Program at the University of Victoria
is pleased to offer starting in January, several distance education
courses for professionals, volunteers and board members in museums, art
galleries, cultural institutions, heritage sites and related
organizations.

Our distance learning courses enable you to develop integral knowledge
and skills flexibly, either at home or in your workplace, at the times
best suited to your learning needs. Innovative print and electronic
learning resources and interactive communications create stimulating
environments where you learn with expert instructors and groups of
colleagues from across Canada and beyond. Courses can be taken
