October Online Professional Development Courses
There’s still time to enrol in October Essentials online courses with McMaster University Continuing Education. Gain valuable tools and insights you will be able to apply immediately to your job.
Reminder: McMaster University Continuing Education Essentials courses are fully funded for University Faculty and Staff. Simply enrol online at mcmastercce.ca (make sure that you are logged out of Mosaic). Once you select your courses and check out, you will log in with your MAC ID and password and the fees should be adjusted. If they are not adjusted and you believe this is an error, please email HR at elr_burs@mcmaster.ca to confirm your eligibility.
Courses can be taken individually or as part of one of our seven Essentials Programs to earn a Certificate of Completion. A new Multi Competency Certificate of Completion is now available when you complete five full days of any Essentials course work and submit the required evaluation components.
