The Canadian Association for University Continuing Education (CAUCE) has released a sector brief that articulates a pan-Canadian value proposition for continuing education units and the impact they can have on strengthening the country’s skills ecosystem. The brief discusses the historic development of continuing education units in Canadian higher ed, and how they now operate as a key part of the rapid-skilling and innovation ecosystem. The brief concludes by asserting that “with the right policy alignment and support, [continuing ed] units can expand their proven role as the infrastructure of lifelong learning, helping Canada remain resilient, innovative, and inclusive in the decades ahead.”
