Sunshine Coast ElderCollege

Leading third age education on the Coast since 2000.

The Sunshine Coast ElderCollege has been offering affordable learning opportunities for Coast residents age 55+ since the year 2000. We offer two semesters of classes a year: Fall (August to November) and Spring (January to June).

Originally part of Capilano University, ElderCollege became an independent non-profit society in October 2015. We are a volunteer-based organization and work in  association with local libraries.

We offer a combination of online (via Zoom) and in person classes, covering a wide range of topics.
