The Centre for Extended Learning (CEL) has been helping Waterloo faculty and instructors design, develop and deliver online learning experiences that align with research-based best practices since 1997. Our creative, experienced team can help you with all your digital learning needs.
Whether you need a small digital resource to demonstrate a complex concept or you want to build a fully online course, we can help you.
CEL services to meet your needs
We offer two streams of service, each focused on particular needs:
- Allocated projects: ideal if you are seeking help with a larger digital project such as a fully online course; these projects are approved at the Faculty level;
- Agile development: ideal for smaller digital projects; these projects receive support on a first-come, first-served basis.
Both services will provide access to the full range of CEL expertise (instructional design, web and media development, pedagogy, accessibility, copyright, etc.).

An evidence-based approach
CEL is actively engaged in research with a mandate to advance online learning. Our provincially funded User Experience Design for Learning (UXDL) initiative is an award-winning example of our research pursuits and illustrates how our research drives our course design practices. We are always keen to hear from faculty whose research interests align with ours and welcome the opportunity to discuss potential collaborations. Learn more about CEL’s research activities.
