Improving Flexibility in Postsecondary Education
Do you feel like you’re teaching in an inflexible environment within a rapidly changing world?
eCampusOntario invites you to participate in our collaborative research and foresight workshop. If you are an instructor currently teaching at an Ontario postsecondary institution (college, university or Indigenous Institute), this workshop is for you!
Connect with us September 26, October 2, or October 4 to examine the challenges instructors face in current teaching environments, identify rigid barriers, and co-create pathways for flexibility in the sector. Our conversations will inform a set of recommendations to help improve flexibility in mindsets, infrastructure, and policies within higher education.

Who we are
