Webinar | Seneca's Journey to Delivering Impactful Cloud Skills in Continuing Ed

This webinar is a part of the EDUCAUSE Industry & Campus Solutions series.

Continuing education is helping to bridge the skill gaps in the industry. Niche educational courses are being designed for specific job roles. With the adoption of cloud platforms, cloud-related technology courses are among the top-pursued curricula in continued education.

While higher education institutions are trying to address the high demand, they face many challenges in course delivery, operations, and management of cloud-based lab environments. Accessibility, expenses, and inadequate technical configurations are among their major obstacles.

Academic Program Manager David Trinh and Senior Systems Admin Todd Julien from Seneca College will shed light on cloud adoption for course delivery and its scope in terms of cost management, delivery of advanced technology courses, and improved student employment opportunities through hands-on learning.
