CAUCE Conference 2022
The CAUCE annual conference and meeting brings together professionals in university continuing education from across Canada to share ideas and best practices, deliberate on important topics, develop and strengthen networks, and to reflect on the place of continuing education in broader society.
Through guest speakers, panel discussions, conference presentations, and workshops, attendees engage with others for their own professional development and to spark ideas for new ways to improve, innovate or build upon their work in their respective institutions.
The 68th annual conference will connect our diverse community of professionals across roles, generations, and geographies to celebrate our respective contributions, share our challenges, and bring greater awareness to our impact on higher education on a national scale.
Connections Matter: The Impact of CE on University Innovation, Collaboration, and Access
University continuing education plays a unique role in higher education. With a focus on the future of work and the desire to build healthier, stronger communities, our positions connect universities at large to the communities that surround us.
We are true connectors who combine expertise, knowledge, research, data and our own creativity to deliver high-quality, high-impact learning experiences to a variety of diverse learners. From researchers with advanced degrees seeking specific skills, to language learners attending university for the first time, to individuals entering or re-entering the workforce, to those changing their career path, people choose our programming because it provides a pathway to lifelong learning for both personal and professional development.
As educators, our connections drive innovation, expand efficiency, promote collaboration, increase access and extend the impact of our universities. Through our ability to work collaboratively, and build partnerships, we can achieve exceptional impact.
This year we will explore the ways in which Connections Matter as our virtual CAUCE conference theme. This theme will guide our conversations throughout #CAUCE2022 as we meet online to share our knowledge and expertise in innovation, collaboration, and access in higher education.
Continuing Education (CE) is an exciting and challenging place to work that requires innovative problem solving, entrepreneurial thinking, nimble teams that respond to industry demand, and strong, diverse partnerships.
We want to hear how you are impacting your practice within your Continuing Education unit to improve the careers and lives of people in your community and beyond.
Registration will open in March, 2022.
Check back this winter for more information on registration and fees.
