McGill University’s School of Continuing Studies is designed for retired and semi-retired individuals. It offers a range of online and in-person courses, lectures, workshops, outings, and social events.
McGill Community for Lifelong Learning (MCLL) is a non-profit, volunteer-based, vibrant community of lifelong learners creating learning opportunities for seniors over the age of 50. The programs do not require exams, grades, or prerequisites, but the pure joy of learning. The university recently hosted an open house to promote its new program, which offers a rich and dynamic learning environment with no age limit and no exams or grades to worry about.
MCLL is celebrating 35 years of service. The university offers in-person and online programs that are set in a 10-week term through fall, winter, and spring, bringing together a variety of Montrealers. Each semester costs $125, offering courses in history, art, theatre, politics, international affairs, and literature, among others.
For many senior students, especially those who live alone, social interactions help them find a sense of belonging and expand their learning through over 35 study groups.
Retirees are invited to join the class and be a part of the MCLL. You can find information about the program and the upcoming open house by visiting the McGill website.
