Prof F. GideonPVC: Academic Affairs M
ore than ever before, many professionals today increasingly have to deal with knowledge obsolescence as their knowledge becomes outdated by the day. The world of work has become volatile and keeps changing
at an unprecedented rate, placing new demands on professionals in terms of new knowledge, skills and attitudes. With its spirit of innovativeness, the University of Namibia offers short courses that are driven by responsiveness to client needs, accessibility, flexibility, inclusivity, fitness for/of purpose and value for money. Below is an outline of our catalogue of short courses for 2017-2018. Take time to peruse through and let us become part of your journey as you seek to sharpen your knowledge and skills in the context of change. Timing in terms of delivery is arranged based on client request. Apart from what is listed in our catalogue, we undertake to develop other short courses at any time as our clients may demand.Thanking you
Prof F. Gideon Pro Vice Chancellor: Academic Affairs
