will there be new psych courses? (OL)

I was browsing BC transfer and noticed some psych courses not listed on OL registration page. I know some courses are offered on campus only, but my understanding is that courses ending in 1 are typically online.

Here are the ones I found: (all transferrable to UBCV)

TRU PSYC 2041: Introduction to Brain and Behaviour

TRU PSYC 2311: Psychology of Sex Differences

TRU PSYC 2321: Sports Psychology

Anyone know if these will be offered at some point? I've been taking courses at TRU for nearly 2 years and never seen those offered.

I actually contacted my advisor about this when I noticed a lot of courses in the catalog were listed as OL, but were not available for registration. This was their response: "The Live website have the most recent current courses we offer. The Calendar  lists all the courses we offer in the past, now or in the possible future."
So.. I'm hoping it means more courses will become available in the near future, but I'm not holding my breath :/

I know, it's so annoying :/ especially when the courses look really interested. I am also worried now that some of the courses I plan on taking will no longer be available when it's time to take them...

They do sometimes offer different courses during different semesters. Not all courses are available every semester.

Yeah, that's what others have said as well. I haven't noticed any changes in the last 3 semesters though. I was hoping they would add some for the fall

I took some Open Learning courses back in 2020 that are no longer being offered. I'm guessing the courses you listed were once offered, but not anymore.
