Open Programs

Meeting the needs of hundreds of enthusiastic learners from around the world each year, our open programs form the cornerstone of all the programming offered by Thompson Rivers University — open to individuals as well as large and small groups.

We have developed a comprehensive range of programs to help our students achieve their individual goals. A collection of curated cultural and recreational activities are woven into each program and ample time is reserved for level-appropriate English language classroom instruction.

The result is a highly motivating and dynamic program that will leave you with increased cultural knowledge, greater language proficiency and a more informed world view.
