SFU’s Liberal Arts and 55+ Program has been offering intellectually challenging non-credit courses to older adult learners since the 1970s. Offered year-round, our courses provide you with an opportunity to learn for the joy of learning, enhance your creativity and sharpen your critical thinking skills. Topics covered range from art and literature to history, science, philosophy and more.

Currently delivered online, our courses allow you to learn from the comfort of home while engaging with classmates from across the province and beyond. The online format may vary from course to course, with audio or video lectures, videoconferencing, online and offline activities, and discussions (see course descriptions for details).

Classes are open to learners of all ages, with a tuition discount for those 55+.

Following the enthusiastic response to our summer online courses, we are excited to launch a new selection of online classes this fall. Our first set of courses will begin September 14. Watch this space for more details in mid-August.
