![]() TUCE Temple University Continuing Education (TUCE) provides a broad administrative framework to present and support a wide range of University offerings not falling within the province of typical undergraduate and graduate degree work on Temple campuses. It acts as an umbrella organization promoting all of the continuing education possibilities available at Temple. It assists all of the schools and colleges in making companies and individuals in the region aware of the multiplicity of opportunities for adults at Temple. In addition to credit programs, TUCE develops and offers a wide range of non-credit programs. Course offerings of TUCE respond to the differing needs of adults seeking additional education. Some offerings are of common interest to all, such as writing and general computer skills. Others, tailored for those adults who wish to change their work situation, focus on new skill and knowledge development. Course work is also designed for adults who wish to maintain their current work position in a profession that requires re-certification to maintain appropriate licenses. Course offerings also are geared to those adults seeking personal enrichment as their primary goal. The form of TUCE programming includes full degrees, degree completion programs, credit certificates, non-credit professional certificates, and non-credit personal enrichment courses. TUCE presents offerings at the following Temple sites: Temple University Ambler, Temple University Fort Washington, Temple University Center City, Harrisburg, and a variety of public and private off-campus sites through the auspices of Extension Services.
