  • Learning from the Moment
    View this email online Learning from the moment February 4, 2021 Colleagues, The employees and students at Laurentian University in Sudbury have been top of mind this week. Laurentian is seeking creditor protection based on what they describe as extreme financial pressures brought on by a wicked combination of declining enrolment, escalating costs, the 2019 tuition freeze and specific expenses related to the pandemic. I’m not in any position to judge the veracity of Laurentian’s claims, but it’s clear that the situation is highly precarious. In that context, I wanted to take time today to reflect on Sheridan’s financial circumstances. It’s also Black History Month, and I want to promote the events our community has organized. Financial stability Black History Month Financial stability Simply: the Laurentian situation underscores why Sheridan has been focused so intently on financial sustainability. In the face of a pandemic, a related global recession and unprecedented changes to how we recruit, teach and retain students – there’s a tremendous imperative to be bold while carefully managing our finances to maintain and enhance the state-of-the-art learning experience Sheridan is known for. As you know, we planned for a “high-impact” budget scenario for 2020-21 that was based on significant enrolment decreases and a resultant $81M decrease in annual Subscribe to our email list. revenue. We took several very difficult steps early in the pandemic to manage costs - - including a hiring freeze, a reduction in discretionary spending and the careful management of part-time salary expenses. We launched a voluntary retirement plan to achieve savings and asked employees to take vacation days to reduce the financial liability associated with accumulated balances (and to promote rest and wellness!).

  • Polytechnics & the Future of Work
    POLYTECHNICS & THE FUTURE OF WORK PREPARING TODAY’S LEARNERS FOR TOMORROW’S WORKFORCE Preparing for Disruption The signs of change are everywhere. Automation, artificial intelligence and the Internet-of- Things are becoming commonplace across economic sectors, even in traditional fields like agriculture, forestry and resource extraction. At the same time, demographics are working against us, amplifying the requirement for strategic workforce development. Disruption, regardless of its source, calls for swift action to prepare Canadians with the skills they need to adapt to new realities. While the changing nature of work often provokes fear about the shrinking role of people in the labour market, it is becoming clear that new jobs will be created and many more transformed. In fact, report after report on the future of work speaks to the skills that set humans apart, including dynamic problem-solving, teamwork and adaptability. The challenge is to develop the workforce we need today while empowering learners with the skills to succeed tomorrow. The future of work will rely on our capacity to make lifelong learning affordable, accessible and integrated with workplace culture. In this environment, one thing is clear: Canada’s polytechnics are ideally positioned to lead the charge. Among Canada’s post-secondary institutions, polytechnics have proven themselves to be adaptable, agile and well-connected to industry. They deliver up-to-date and in-demand skills across sectors and to all age groups. They support hands-on, applied and technology-enabled classroom and workplace learning. Best of all, they have the unique ability to pivot quickly as the ground shifts.
