It’s YOUR time to #EdUpPCO

 

In this episode,

YOUR host is Amrit Ahluwalia⁠⁠.


Some key questions we tackle:

> What are the most significant headwinds causing concern in the Canadian postsecondary space?

> How can Canadian colleges and universities ensure they’re delivering value economically, socially and to its individual students?

> What role can professional, continuing and online education units play in driving this kind of value?

 

During this interview we referenced this paper written by Jackie Pichette and published in RBC’s The Growth Project: Testing Times; Fending Off a Crisis in Canadian Postsecondary Education
