If a company is assuming the costs of your tuition and fees, a letter of sponsorship on company letterhead must be submitted to the School of Continuing Education at the time you enrol. The letter must include these items:  

• sponsor name
• sponsor phone number 
• payment information 

Submit the letter of sponsorship to us in one of the following ways:

• Email it to sce@macewan.ca.
• Mail it with your enrolment form.
• Deliver it in person to Room 11-521, Allard Hall (fifth floor).

Sponsorship letters must be course- or program-specific. A new sponsorship letter is needed for each course or program you take through the School of Continuing Education.

Substitutions not permitted

If a company is assuming the costs of your tuition and fees, your personal information is still required (first name, last name, email address, contact information, etc.). If you are unable to attend, the refund/withdrawal policies apply. Another staff member may not attend on your behalf.

Courses offered by the School of Continuing Education are in Allard Hall on MacEwan University's campus. Your confirmation of enrolment lists the room number(s) for your class. If your class takes place in different rooms on different days, your enrolment confirmation also includes those details. 

MAPS & DIRECTIONS

As a student in the School of Continuing Education, you have access to the MacEwanSecure wireless network while you are on campus. After you have enrolled in a course, you receive a follow-up email with your MacEwan ID, which you use for future course enrolments and to access the wireless network.

For information and step-by-step instructions to access MacEwanSecure Wireless, visit MacEwan.ca/TechSupport.

Non-credit courses do not count for university-level credit towards a degree or diploma program. Non-credit courses are designed to supplement your existing education and experience. There is more flexibility in the learning objectives, and they are taught by experienced industry professionals who are currently working or have dedicated experience in the field. Many of the courses offered for professional and personal development are non-credit courses. More information about non-credit courses can be found in our non-credit policy documentation.

Sometimes the School of Continuing Education partners with outside institutions to provide access to a greater variety of courses. Because of this, discounts can only be applied to MacEwan University-owned non-credit courses.

If you have any questions about the status of a course, please contact us at (780) 497-4400 (or toll-free at 1-855-797-4400) or sce@macewan.ca.

View the add/drop deadlines for the academic schedule in the Academic Calendar.

Non-attendance in a course does not constitute a withdrawal from the course. Notifying your instructor, ceasing to attend classes or stopping payment are not accepted as a course drop or withdrawal.

Note: SCE International students may withdraw after the add/drop deadline, but they must pay the term's fees. 

Students are expected to join and participate in their scheduled live classes according to their weekly schedule in My Campus. Students are required to complete the prescribed learning activities during their scheduled class sessions and/or on mêskanâs as directed by the instructor.

If the course you have enrolled in is cancelled, we make every effort to contact you prior to the start date. Fees for cancelled classes are refunded or can be applied to another course.

A professional development certificate may be issued to those individuals who have satisfactorily met expectations of a prescribed series of learning activities.

A certificate of achievement may be issued to those individuals who have satisfactorily met expectations of a prescribed credit learning activity of fewer than 30 credits that has a formal evaluation component.

Skills achievement documentation may be issued to those individuals who have satisfactorily met expectations of a prescribed series of learning activities.
