Learning & Development

Fostering a Culture of Individual Development at UBC

As an academic institution, UBC fosters a culture of learning for students, staff, and faculty.

While we may all be very familiar with the type of formal learning that takes place in academic scholarship, we also support and encourage individual development and organizational effectiveness for our staff and faculty.

At UBC, we use the term “learning” in a very broad sense to encompass those activities that engage you in changing the way you think about or do things resulting in new insight and action.

UBC is committed to supporting the professional development of all employees, and to creating opportunities for reflective learning that engages  and benefits the mind, for all members of our organization.

The kinds of learning available at UBC run the full gamut from academic programs, through to workshops available across the various campus providers, to individual coaching. We invite you to explore and find the resources best suited to your learning needs.
