Continuing Education and the COVID-19 Pandemic
In compliance with state and local mandates in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are migrating some of our lectures and courses to an online format. You’ll experience the same quality teaching by our world-class faculty — and receive CDE credit — through our classes on the Zoom platform. If you are on our mailing list, you will receive updates as courses are scheduled on Zoom.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to email us at cde@ucsf.edu or call and leave a message at 415.514.0778.
