Historical NoteReturn to Top

The University of Washington has had programs for continuing education since 1912, operating under many names through the years. In 1960 an office of Continuing Education was formed. From 1984 through 1995 the Vice Provost's office oversaw Continuing Education & Summer Quarter, University Extension & Summer Quarter, and then Continuing Education. In 1996 Continuing Education became Educational Outreach, and since 2016 the University of Washington Continuum College. UW Extension became its own unit and in 2010 was renamed Professional and Continuing Education, under the Continuum College. School of Drama professor Richard T. Lorenzen was Vice Provost from 1983 until 1999 when he left for Northwestern. Under his aegis, the program grew to include more than 65 professional certificate programs, 10 undergraduate and 12 graduate evening degrees, as well as 140 distance-learning courses.
