@msm_reporter @UNESCO Thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to share some thoughts about lifelong learning with @msm_reporter. Also discuss @UNESCO strategic development goals and the inclusion of #LifelongLearning 👏

@msm_reporter interviews @garyhepburn, dean of The Chang School of Continuing Education at Toronto Metropolitan University @ChangSchool in Canada, to explore the conversations on lifelong learning, @UNESCO’s call for continuous education and more. hubs.ly/Q01Wm4FH0

@MarkOi Welcome to TMU, Mark.

Excellent breakdown of the benefits of #Microcredentials. When properly implemented, these have high potential for addressing the needs of adult learners & employers alike. tinyurl.com/3dpfd53n

The adult learning market is changing. Pleased to share my thoughts on the coming challenge to University Continuing Education. #ContEd tinyurl.com/mrx5f6n2

@StevenJahn_ @YVR_P @AlexUsherHESA The housing shortage is a fair point. It’s a serious challenge for community development in many parts of CB and NS. Bringing talent to NS is a top priority and one that requires several supporting strategies. What CBU is doing is positive but not without challenges.

Cape Breton University enrolment by student status, 2000-2022.

Strong relationships between CE units and external partners can support both enrolment growth and address skill gaps. Pleased to share my thoughts in The Evolllution. #CdnPSE ow.ly/VSSw50Lcq8F

@RayMackeyNL Awesome shot. Amazing.

Interesting perspective on addressing the skills gap. At @ChangSchool, we're committed to partnering with businesses to help them develop their talent through #Microcredentials. ow.ly/9qJP50L8nL3

Good luck to everyone in Nova Scotia #nsstorm #Fiona. Stay safe and enjoy the chips. 💪

Please take #Fiona seriously everyone. Especially Cape Breton ,which is not getting a lot of media attention. It may be easy to believe only Halifax will be a problem. Make a plan. Fill up your tub and pots with water, gas up your car. There's still time. Not a lot, mind you.

At @TheChangSchool, we're also committed to meeting the needs and preferences of continuous learners through enhanced virtual services and support. We're here to help. #CdnPSE ow.ly/MMXM50KMTU9

Great listing of services and supports for TMU students - most of which are available to @ChangSchool learners. Recommend taking advantage of these. ow.ly/RpOc50KGV4O

Revisions to Policy 76 allows us to offer additional credentials, including accredited #Microcredentials. By identifying competencies, Canadian businesses will be better equipped to address the talent gap. Stay tuned. ow.ly/eQ8J50KFtLo

@JMM_MMC @SailBluenoseII It definitely is. It’s amazing how people in NS love the bluenose. It never goes unnoticed here.

@garyhepburn @SailBluenoseII Hey we just saw the Bluenose in LUNENBURG on Tuesday….small world

The ⁦@SailBluenoseII⁩ at the mouth of Guysborough Harbour.

Wishing a heartfelt congratulations to President Lachemi on receiving a 2022 Top 25 Canadian Immigrant Award. His journey is an inspiration to the @TorontoMet community. ow.ly/pHmL50KeSKU

Excellent profile of Gold Medal recipients, including @ChangSchool's Maha Naqi. In spite of her own challenges, Maha devoted time to supporting her peers during the pandemic. ow.ly/aL4c50K0l3e

I was excited to see many Black and Indigenous grads wearing stoles at @TorontoMet Convocation. Suggest reading this piece to learn about the cultural significance of these items: ow.ly/ehCF50JPExu #CdnPSE

@umextendeded @UManitoba Congratulations Bill. A well-deserved honour.

Congrats Bill Kops, now Professor Emiritus. For his many years of distinguished service and his ongoing work on teaching older adults, our longest-serving faculty member was recognized with this honour by @UManitoba Board of Governors. #KeepLearning #UManitoba
