Notes

Telecollege was established by Wilfrid Laurier University in 1978, under the umbrella of Part-Time Studies and Continuing Education, as a "distance education" program. Courses were offered in a video medium, allowing students to earn university credits in their own home. The courses were produced through the Audio-Visual Department. Telecollege Productions ceased to exist in 1992.

Wilfrid Laurier University is located in Waterloo, Ontario. It began in 1911 as the Evangelical Lutheran Seminary of Canada. In 1924 Waterloo College was established, providing courses in post-secondary education. In 1960 Waterloo College became Waterloo Lutheran University, and in 1973 changed its name to Wilfrid Laurier University.
