We encourage all members of the U of T community to engage in lifelong learning to extend the relationship of alumni to the university, and contribute to their professional and or personal growth and satisfaction.
How we all work and learn has been changing rapidly. SCS wants to support you through this evolution. We recognize that in addition to new assistance options for online learners whose finances were impacted by COVID-19, there is an appetite from our learners for content to help explore new territory, engage your minds, and learn skills and ideas you can apply to your lives and careers now.
We reached out to our community of learners to get a better idea of just what kinds of content and the topics into which you would like to gain insight. We asked, you responded, we listened. The U of T SCS Knowledge Hub series is the result.
We appreciate that supporting your lifelong journey requires an investment of resources on your part. And we acknowledge that sometimes you may need financial aid to reach your lifelong learning goals. We continue to work to find new resources to support student aid to complement our existing bursaries, awards and loans for newcomers.
