Learn on the job

Just because you’ve graduated and have a job, doesn't mean it’s time to stop learning. As educators well know, you never stop learning. In fact, it’s important to continue a lifelong habit of learning, to stay on top of the curve. Concordia offers many opportunities to continue your education.

The Center for Community Learning and Leadership is committed to delivering high-quality and affordable professional development programs aimed at enhancing the growth prospects and enrichment of both educators and institutions, individually and collectively.
