Annual Report

The Center for Regional & Continuing Education (RCE) strengthens and expands the
resources of the University to respond to lifelong learning needs. That is our mission.

RCE’s strengths are demonstrated by the sheer variability of our programs; to respond
quickly to serve lifelong learning needs in creative ways is what we are all about. From early
childhood reading preparation to learning in retirement, Continuing Education offers people
of all ages, nationalities, and locations many ways to connect to the University. RCE is
firmly grounded in regional stewardship while reaching out to bring people to campus as we
expand the reach of the University.

This annual report demonstrates our contributions to the campus' six strategic priorities and highlights our accomplishments for 2006-2007.
