The University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB) is involved not only in instruction, but also in research and extension.
Its intellectual resources, through research, continue to generate new ideas and technologies designed to benefit various clientele. Through the University’s extension function, these ideas and technologies are disseminated to intended beneficiaries with the goal of attaining social change and development.
Among the regular extension activities of UPLB is the offering of non-degree Short Courses and Training Programs which provide practical knowledge and skills in various subject matters.
These courses are offered annually mostly during summer months of April, May, and June but they can also be offered any time of the year upon the request of an organization or a group of interested parties.
You can download our 2008 catalogue of short courses and training programs in two (2) PDF-based formats:
1. Continuously paged document, for easy reading in a computer
2. Booklet form, ready for back to back printing
The 2007 catalogue offered by the UPLB units in 2007 is also available as a download.
In addition to the listed courses, UPLB also designs and conducts capability building, continuing education programs to tailor-fit the needs of the requesting organizations.
