Our program
ANU Continuing Education (CE) is run by the ANU Centre for Learning and Teaching (CLT) with the aim to provide members of the wider community an opportunity to extend and enrich their learning.
We offer a range of non-accredited courses to members of the public: Community Courses for those who are keen to engage in lifelong learning through the study of languages, visual arts, history and philosophy.
Along with Executive Short Courses and Micro-credentials which are developed by ANU colleges and institutes, catering primarily to the professional development needs of the workplace and executives looking to expand their career opportunities.
We also provide Professional Learning programs and workshops to support ANU academics with learning and teaching, including course design, inclusive teaching and digital pedagogies.
In addition, we host ANU Extension which is a distinguished program that provides an enhanced learning experience for Year 11 and 12 students in ACT schools and colleges, enabling students to study sciences, engineering, computing, mathematics, commerce, languages and Asian studies at ANU while still in high school.

Location
Most CE courses are held on the ANU campus and some are held online 'live' via Zoom.
Inclusions
All our courses are non-accredited and participants receive a certificate of participation via email upon course completion.
Are you interested in learning one of the world’s most spoken languages? Mandarin Chinese may seem intimidating at first, but it is actually easier to learn than many other languages. There are no verb conjugations, no plurals, no tenses, no subject-verb agreement, and no noun declension.
In this course participants will be taught how to read and write the commonly used Chinese radicals which still form the basis of modern Chinese writing. By mastering these radicals
Mandarin: Elementary 1 is a beginners’ course focusing on the attainment of basic conversational and grammatical skills.
At the end of your course you will receive a Certificate of Completion, detailing what you studied, for how many hours, and your final level. While our courses are not accredited by any university or similar institution, we can dedicate a portion of your course to exam prep.
For 3+ yrs old children. Specially selected materials coupled with fun activities to introduce Chinese language to young learners. Activities include weekly topic, craft, singing and dancing, and storytelling.
