Talk:University of Cambridge Institute of Continuing Education

Possibilities for further expansion

(These are a rewritten version of comments intended for the recent deletion discussion - which, however, closed before I could add them there.)

The article as it stands deals well with the Institute as it currently is - but the time at which the Institute seems to have had its greatest influence was during its earliest years, though (as I had commented earlier in the deletion discussion) this may not be immediately obvious as the Institute's current name has been adopted relatively recently (sometime soon after 2000) and it was known by various other names before that. In brief, what is now the Institute seems to have been the earliest established organisation in the university extension movement (about which we do not seem to have an article, but look for instance at this, this, this and this), which effectively created continuing education (and, directly or indirectly, most types of post-school education) in Britain and much of the rest of the English-speaking world.

That would be an interesting way to expand the article. Incidentally university extension is a redirect. The problem would be finding sources.Anythingyouwant (talk) 00:50, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
