UC Davis Give Day 2023

 Continuing professional education creates opportunity. It advances careers, transforms lives and enriches communities. 

By donating to UC Davis Continuing and Professional Education (CPE), the workforce development and lifelong learning arm of the university, you’re funding innovative, accessible educational programs and scholarships that open rewarding career paths across a student’s lifetime.

CPE is a self-supporting academic unit and our students usually aren’t eligible for student loans or tuition assistance programs. Your support on Give Day matters – it helps ensure that all adults, regardless of socioeconomic status, have access to life-changing professional development and lifelong learning opportunities.

Support one of the challenges issued by CPE and the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) to expand access to learning:

• UC Davis Wine Scholarships – Support a more inclusive wine industry by helping fund scholarships that give diverse, aspiring winemakers access to the prestigious online UC Davis CPE Winemaking Certificate Program
• Heart of OLLI Fund – Support the expansion of interactive, hybrid courses giving people over 50 the flexibility to connect with friends and learn in the classroom or via synchronized streaming through Zoom
