School of Continuing Studies
DEAN’S WELCOME
In the pages of this calendar you’ll find
more than 500 courses covering a
vast range of subjects and linked by a
common thread: all are designed to
help motivated people broaden their
horizons, advance in their careers and
explore their own creativity.
Learning From Each Other
At the University of Toronto School
of Continuing Studies, lifelong
learning is a two way street. We’re
not just here to deliver courses in
the classroom and online –
although our students give us high
marks in that regard, with 94%
saying they would recommend the
School to others. We’re also here to
learn from our students. By
listening to their needs, understanding their goals and appreciating how education opens up new
opportunities in their lives, we can
create the right courses and
programs, taught by the best
instructors, to help them realize
their potential.
success is what helps us forge
partnerships with industry and
professional organizations as we
continue to develop learning
choices that are current, innovative
and targeted at emerging needs.
Constantly Evolving
This is what has made the School
a leader in continuing education:
we are constantly evolving to
reflect our students’ changing
priorities. What’s more, it’s our
relevance and responsiveness that
enable us to attract such talented
instructors; the quality of our
teaching is the number one reason
students cite for choosing the
School. And the fact that our
success mirrors our students’
Ambitions Fulfilled
When students tell me about the
opportunities they’ve seized and
the ambitions they’ve fulfilled by
studying at the School, I reflect on
how much we, in turn, have learned
from them. Like our instructors and
staff, I’m inspired by our students’
energy, passion and commitment. I
look forward to seeing what more
we can achieve together.
Marilynn Booth, Dean
University of Toronto
School of Continuing Studies

than ever across all three University
of Toronto campuses – downtown
St. George, U of T Mississauga and

Foundations of Brand
Management
As the foundation for the
Certificate in Brand Management
program, this course introduces
the concept of brand management as a discipline that drives
business growth and company
value. Participants will learn the
basic concepts and functions
of brand management, and how
they integrate into a coherent
brand management framework.
Participants will apply brand
management principles, online and
offline, within different contexts,
including manufacturing and a
broadly defined retail industry,
(any company distributing products/services direct to customers), and within that B2C versus
B2B context. The role of the brand
manager in brand leadership will
be examined and organizational
strategies to fully implement and
live the brand strategy will be
explored.
Through a mix of lectures on
current practices of brand
management, facilitated discussion, practical instruction and an
emphasis on real-life examples and
case studies, this course will bring
brand management to life.

Business Analysis
Business Analysis
The Certificate in Business Analysis
was developed by the School of
Continuing Studies to respond to the
growing demand in many businesses
for individuals with the knowledge,
competencies and skills to become
full-fledged Business Analysts, or
BAs. Business analysis is the discipline involving the identification of
business needs and associated
potential solutions to business
problems. Solutions often include
a systems development component,
but may also consist of process
improvement or organizational
change. The person who carries out
this task is increasingly designated
as a BA. Those BAs who work solely
on developing software systems
may be called IT Business Analysts,
Technical Business Analysts, or
Systems Analysts.
The Business Analysis Body of
Knowledge (BABoK) is defined by the
International Institute of Business
Analysis (IIBA) and it serves as the
basis for attaining the internationally recognized Certified Business
Analysis Professional (CBAP) designation. The Certificate in Business
Analysis consists of three courses
that cover the BABoK: Foundations
of Business Analysis, Leadership
in Business Analysis and Business
Analysis Tools and Techniques.
There are three equivalent delivery
methods – Evening in-class, Online and
Professional Day Seminars. Students
can take any combination of delivery
methods to obtain their certificate.

Business Process
Management
Business Process Management or
BPM is a discipline that considers
business processes to be strategic
assets of an organization that must be
understood, managed, and improved
to deliver value added products
and services to clients, users and
stakeholders. BPM is becoming an
all-encompassing concern for many
organizations, and BPM professionals
are increasingly in demand in private
enterprises as well as in public sector
organizations. A common objective of
BPM is to harness technology to drive
and manage change in an organization.
Business Process is often the key
driver of workflow & workload, and
the determinant of organizational
capacity & capabilities for both
private and public sector entities.
The need to continuously improve the
efficiency and effectiveness of business processes to remain competitive
is a strategic imperative for many
organizations in the private sector.
The increased demand for improved
accountability, and effectiveness
& efficiency puts similar pressures
on public sector organizations to
analyze and optimize their business
processes.

for designing and validating the business model for your new business.
Building on SCS 2928 – Market
Discovery and Intelligence, in this
course you will apply the key frameworks in the search for a sustainable
business model. This course is

business from your own funds and
revenue from customers), government grants, ‘friend, family and
fools,’ or raising money from angel
investors or venture capitalists.
In this final course in the Certificate,
you will explore and put into practice

Business Information Technology
Management (BITM) is an emerging
integrative management discipline
that seeks to integrate the decision making processes of business
management and the management
of information and communication
technology ICT into a comprehensive,
coherent framework that builds
bridges between the previously isolated tools and standards of the two
disciplines of business management
and technology management.
Most enterprises employ a number of
methodologies and standards such as
the Capability Maturity Model (CMM)
for software design, (ITIL) for IT
service management, Lean Six Sigma
(LSS) for quality management, and
the Balanced Score Card (BSC) for
performance management. However,
none of these methodologies focuses
on enabling and integrating business
and technology to achieve added
value for the enterprise. The main
premise of BITM is the building of
bridges between previously isolated
tools and standards for business and
technology management, and by
strategically incorporating both
infrastructure and operational levels
of technology management to
ensure that an enterprise’s business
strategy can be realized by the
technology it deploys.

Cloud Computing
Enterprise Architecture
The certificate in cloud computing
consists of three courses that cover
the body of knowledge in cloud
computing as an important ICT
discipline. Cloud computing is a term
that emerged in the first decade of the
this century to refer to the provision
of computing services and storage
resources through access to data and
business applications stored on servers at remote locations. Cloud access
can be had through a variety of interfaces including lap tops, desk tops
and mobile devices. Cloud application
providers strive to give comparable
or better service and performance
compared to locally installed software programs and applications on
end-user computers. The underlying
concepts of cloud computing are:
(i) infrastructure convergence,
(ii) shared services which allow
enterprises to get their applications
up and running faster, with easier
manageability and less maintenance,
and (iii) enabling enterprises to more
rapidly adjust their ICT resources to
meet fluctuating and unpredictable
business demands more effectively
and economically.
The rapid growth of information
technology and the impact of the
Internet have radically changed how
business is conducted. To succeed in
this complex and dynamic environment, organizations need an integrative and holistic approach to
management and planning.

Enterprise Architecture (EA) provides
a framework for the business to
implement new applications and
systems to manage the lifecycle and
value of business processes. It can
help to align business strategy and IT
infrastructure to maximize the returns
on investment while minimizing the
total cost of ownership to sustain and
grow the business. This certificate
program introduces the fundamental
and advanced concepts of EA and
how organizations can utilize EA to
optimize core operations, become
agile and remain competitive.
Most ideal candidates for the program
would be IT Project Managers,
Business Architects, etc. who wish
to acquire an overview of EA and
its methodologies. Although this
is NOT a technical program, a high
level of business analysis skills is
most desirable.

Real estate is the ultimate low-risk
road to wealth. On his deathbed in
1848, John Jacob Astor, who would
have been worth $78 billion (US) today,
lamented not having purchased all the
property in Manhattan. There is money
to be made in commercial real estate,
especially when the stock market is not
performing well. Few comprehensive
resources exist, however, for people
who want information on how to profit
from commercial real estate.
This course explores the entire commercial real estate process, including
the decision to invest, finding and
assessing properties, financing, and
legal and tax consequences. You’ll
learn how to increase the return
on your investment for all kinds of
properties from multi-family units to
industrial, retail and office buildings.

Rational or irrational? See the website

Is human nature fixed or still changing? Are we made or self-making

How did conceptions of human nature
change from the Renaissance to the
19th century? You will appreciate how
writers extended the insights of their
predecessors, while addressing persistent themes like: Are human beings
self-interested or altruistic? Isolated
individuals or social creatures? Moral
agents or calculating animals? See the
website for the authors’ names.
Perhaps the most general and yet
most personal of all philosophical
questions asks “What is the Meaning
of Life?” To help us get at this
as-large-as-life topic, we have many
places to look and no single viewpoint
or approach rules them all. We draw
upon great thinkers and personal
experience alike in order to embrace
the mystery of meaning.

Aristotle, surrounded by a visual
“who’s who” of philosophy. A survey

invite us to ask “What is love?”
“What is wisdom?” “What is the good
life?” Join us as we let a masterpiece

of class time (usually six 20-hour
courses – note an online course is
equivalent to 20 hours), and the
submission of a final project to the

start date of their first course to
complete the certificate. This includes
the completion of their Final Project
Tutorial (see below).
Please note:
We cannot guarantee the availability
of particular courses as course offerings may change from year to year.

Languages & Translation
Levels: Basic Description of Course Content
Conversation & Translation Courses
Conversation
Level II
Level IV
Level I
You’ve had success in Level I, or
already possess the equivalent basic
grammar and conversation skills. Now,
you can expand your vocabulary and
learn more structures, idioms and
cultural etiquette with this course.
Designed for students who have completed Level III, or who possess the
equivalent language skills, this course
increases your ability to converse
and handle everyday encounters and
transactions. By course end, you will
be able to express your point of view
with certainty and probability, provide
explanations, negotiate with people
and relate past, present and future
experiences using the appropriate
tenses. You can write a text describing
experiences and impressions.
This course is for people who wish
to learn to speak the language of
choice but who have never or rarely
been exposed to the language, or for
those who once studied the language
but have forgotten the basics. The
focus is on learning to communicate
in everyday situations through an
introduction to the grammatical
structures of the spoken and written
language. By course-end, your basic
working knowledge of the language
and classroom role-playing will allow
you to interact in a simple way in
the areas of immediate need. These
include greeting people, expressing
likes and dislikes, asking and answering simple questions, writing a short
simple postcard or e-mail, and filling
in forms with personal details like your
name, nationality and address.
REQ U ISIT E S K IL L S E T: You are not yet able
in spoken language to give, in full, complete
sentences, your name, address, and phone
number.
Role-playing and simulations of everyday interactions reinforce the skills
you need to participate in social events
at a basic level such as providing
instructions and directions, describing your family and other people and
places, relating daily activities and
some past events, communicating in
simple and routine tasks as shopping,
and inviting or accepting an invitation.
You will also be able to write simple
notes and messages for example for
thanking or apologizing. Written homework develops your grasp of grammar,
syntax, and vocabulary.
REQ U ISIT E S K IL L S E T: You are not yet ready
in spoken language to communicate simple
directions such as how to go from your home to
your workplace.
Level III
By exploring some of the complexities
of the conversational language, this
course builds on the skills you already
possess. Classroom role-playing
exercises reinforce the skills you need
to exchange advice and points of view,
compare situations and express possibilities, wishes and doubts. By course
end, you will be fluent expressing what
you can and cannot do, and discussing
past and future events, talking about
shopping, restaurants or employment,
and writing a simple personal letter.
REQ U ISIT E S K I L L S E T: You are able to relate to
events in the past, present and future.
Level V
Expand your ability to function in the
spoken language. Learn grammatical
structures and idiomatic expressions.
Increase your knowledge of language
etiquette. Students who have successfully completed Level IV, or who
possess the equivalent skills, will gain
precision in their speech, learn how to
make complex comparisons, and gain
confidence discussing and analysing
social issues expressing your point
of view and giving a substantiated
opinion or direct and indirect suggestions. You can describe experiences
and ambitions, and give reasons for
opinions and plans. You can write a
text on topics like art, food, the media
and the environment.
REQ U ISIT E S K I L L S E T: Students who enrol in
this course are already comfortable expressing
their opinions. For instance, they will be able to
describe the biggest social ill in their community
and how to solve it.
REQ U ISIT E S K IL L S E T: You are comfortable, in
spoken language, giving directions such as how
to go from your home to your workplace.

This Level VI course is for people who
have completed Level V, or who have
equivalent language skills. Students
who enrol in this course are comfortable expressing their choice of a vacation spot, for example, and can give
three reasons for their decision. By
the end of this course you will be able
to interact with a degree of fluency
and spontaneity that makes regular
interaction with a native speaker
quite possible. You can present clear,
detailed descriptions on a wide range
of subjects and write an essay on
matters related to your interests.

Every day, events in the Arab world

Modern Standard Arabic
Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)
provides the most balanced language
base for studying Arabic. It is a moderate idiom that bridges the classical
Arabic of literature and the Qur’an,
and commonly spoken dialects of the
22 Arab countries. All native Arabic
speakers can easily alternate between
their spoken dialects and MSA. The
language of education and scholarship, MSA is also used for communications and formal media, such as
newspapers.
Courses in this stream have been
designed for learners who want an
introduction to this neutral Arabic
form for travel, business, study or
personal enrichment. In addition to
practising speaking and understanding the language for everyday conversation, we will use the Arabic alphabet
and transliteration to support reading,
writing and listening skills.

Modern Greek is not Classical or
Biblical, but reflects the long experiences of its speakers. The conquests
of Alexander the Great left Greek as a
widespread business language, much
simpler than its classical predecessor.
Then, Venice bequeathed her maritime vocabulary to the Greeks, and
Ottoman Turkey left many everyday
words by occupying the country.
Greek is spoken by over eleven million
people in Greece, as well as a diaspora
of over three million world-wide,
including 200,000 people in Toronto.

a short mock exam, which will be
followed by discussion, correction and
take-home exercises. There will be a
three-hour exam in the style of the
JLPT at the conclusion of the course.
Each class will include a mix of
students preparing for various JLPT
levels. Instructors will be thorough in
providing level-appropriate information and answers to all student
questions.
The JLPT exam is held once a year
on a Sunday in early Dec. For more
information, please visit www.jlpt.jp.

Polish
Portuguese
The official language of Poland, Polish
is a blend of Slavic and European elements, perfectly reflecting Poland’s
position at the geographical centre
of Europe. Polish is the language of a
world-renowned body of cinema and
a vibrant literary tradition. It is the
native language of musicians such
as Chopin, Paderewski, and Gorecki.
Since it uses the Latin alphabet
supplemented with diacritical marks,
Polish is more accessible to English
speakers than some other Slavic
languages.
Portuguese is the official language of
Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Cape Verde,
Guinea-Bissau, Macao, Mozambique,
Timor-Leste, and São Tomé and
Príncipe. It is ranked sixth among
the world’s languages in number of
native speakers with over 200 million,
and first in South America with 186
million speakers or over 51% of the
population. The musical, literary and
cinematic culture of Brazil is testimony to the vibrancy of the language.

Languages & Translation
Tamil
Turkish
Vietnamese
Tamil is a language of the Indian
subcontinent spoken in parts of India
and Sri Lanka. It is also an official
language of Singapore. Tamil is one
of the longest surviving classical languages in the world, with a literature
over 2000 years old. The modern
colloquial language differs considerably from classical forms, and from
formal, written Tamil.
Turkish is spoken natively in Turkey,
Cyprus, Bulgaria, and other countries
of the former Ottoman Empire, as
well as by several million immigrants
in the European Union. There are
65 to 73 million Turkish speakers
worldwide. Closely related to other
Turkic languages spoken in Central
Asia, it is distinctive in its vowel
harmony and is now written in a
modified Roman alphabet.
Vietnamese is the national language
of the 70 million people of Vietnam. It
is also spoken in Vietnamese communities around the world. It is a tonal
language, much of whose vocabulary
is derived from Chinese especially
words for abstract ideas, in the same
way that modern European languages
borrowed from Latin and Greek. The
writing system in use today is an
adapted version of the Latin alphabet,
with additional diacritical marks for
tones and sounds.
Toronto is an important centre
for Tamil emigrants with a lively
community of restaurants and
businesses, art, community services
and mass media.

Languages & Translation
Yiddish
Yiddish was the language of Jews who
settled in the Rhine Valley after
migrating from lands where Romance
languages were spoken about a
thousand years ago. Thus, quite
naturally, the language that evolved
was a mixture of local German
dialects, sprinkled with words from
Romance languages, and from the
Hebrew and Aramaic adopted from
the Jewish world of prayer and study.
Yiddish is written with Hebrew
characters from right to left. It is a
language still spoken by Jews
throughout the world and is currently
seeing a renaissance in academic
institutions the world over.

Distance & Online Learning
Distance Learning:
Q&A
Course Materials
When do I receive my course
materials? How are they delivered?
For online classes, you will receive
your password and user ID two to
three days before the class starts.
Course materials become available online as soon as you sign into
Blackboard.
Textbooks
Are textbooks included in the course
fee? Are they required? Where can I
buy them?
Textbooks are required for all
courses unless otherwise stated.
These are not included in the course
fee and can be purchased online
at www.uoftbookstore.com or by
telephoning 416-640-5840 or
1-888-662-6368 approximately two
weeks before your course starts.
Provide your course number and
section to make sure you get the
correct edition of the textbook. Home
delivery is available for a small fee.
Logging in to Blackboard
When and how do I receive a login
and password?
If you are taking an online course, or
if your course has an online component, you will be sent a message two
days before the start of your course
stating your Blackboard user ID and
password and giving you instructions
on how to log in.
Assignments
How do I submit my assignments?
The fastest way to submit assignments is to send them to your instructor by email. Those using Blackboard
should submit their assignments
according to their instructor’s directions. Detailed instructions about
submissions are available in your
Student Information Booklet.
When are my assignments due?
The assignment due dates are shown
in your Student Information Booklet
or in your course outline for online
courses. They are posted online
and also published in your course
materials.
How long does it take to get my
assignments back?
Allow for a two-week turnaround for
each assignment.
How do I register to write my exam?
Complete the examination form
included in the Course Information
Link and submit it by the deadline
stated on the form. We will acknowledge your request within two weeks
of receiving it, and a reminder with
information about the exam location
will be sent to you two weeks prior to
the exam date.
If I can’t write the exam on the
scheduled date, what are my
options?
If you are unable to write a scheduled
exam for any reason, you may apply
to write an alternate exam. The fee for
this service is $150 and the application form is found at learn.utoronto.
ca/uoft/registration/forms.jsp or
call 416-978-2400 and we will mail
one. Please note that if you fail a final
exam, you are not eligible to write an
alternate.
Is it necessary to do the
assignments?
Generally, assignments and/or final
projects are worth between 20% and
50% of your final grade, depending on
the course. If you do not submit your
assignments, the marks assigned to
them will be deducted from your final
grade. For courses in the Languages
and Translation area, all assignments
and the final project must be submitted to obtain a passing grade. Late
assignments may be accepted at the
discretion of the instructor and/or the
department.
Instructor Support
Examinations
How do I ask for help?
If you have difficulty accessing
your online materials, submitting
your assignments, or emailing your
instructor, please call 416-978-2412
or 1-800-310-0006, allowing 48 hours
for a reply.
How and where do I write exams?
Final examinations, where applicable,
are conducted at locally situated,
proctored exam centres. Exams can
be scheduled almost anywhere in the
world. See the Course Information link
for sites. Exams are held in the morning
and the afternoon. If you are taking two
courses, your exams will be staggered
– one after the other. If you are taking
more than two, contact the School to
make special arrangements. There is
a supplementary charge of $125 for
students outside Canada and the U.S.
What support can I expect from my
instructor?
In all cases, your instructor will provide guidance and support by email.
In addition, feedback will accompany
each marked assignment. For online
classes supported by Blackboard,
your instructor may also choose to
post instructions and comments in
the course announcements section,
and on the course discussion board.

Grades
Grade Scale
Courses in which students are
assessed and awarded a final grade
may use a letter, percentage or
honours/pass/fail grading scheme.
During the first class, your instructor
will provide you with a course outline
detailing the grade scheme, grade
weighting and passing grade scale. If
you are a distance or online learning
student, you will receive this information with your course materials.
For complete information on
grade scales, please visit our website
at learn.utoronto.ca/
student-resources/grades-andappeals#scale.
Final Grades
Final grades will be available to
students within four to six weeks of
course completion.
Upon release, final grades may also
be viewed online through your student
account via the MyAccess – Student
Login page on our website.
Letters of
Attendance
If you require official verification of
your attendance in a course, you may
request a letter of attendance. To
qualify, you must sign the attendance
record at each class and have attained
a minimum of 75% class attendance
(80% for full-time ELP courses).
Assessment of
Learning
Students at the School of Continuing
Studies may choose to have their
performance assessed by an instructor. Many of our registrants, however,
enjoy learning for personal enrichment
and therefore do not want or need a
recorded performance assessment.
If you wish to receive an assessment, particularly in courses where
performance is not measured and
final grades are not issued, it is your
responsibility to inform the instructor
at the first meeting of the course.

grade, complete a “Reconsideration
