About us

Care & Compassion: We prioritize a holistic approach that fosters learner success through compassionate relationships, valuing the well-being of both educators and learners as well as demonstrating ethical care for all community members. 

Collaboration: We are more impactful when we work together within our team, with the Concordia community, and with other external partners. We unify for the best outcome in learner success.   

Creativity & Curiosity: We bring genuine curiosity, open-mindedness, and attentiveness to the needs of diverse community members to allow for wonder, joy, and newness in our work. We also take time to understand a new situation, adopt a forward-looking approach and, when appropriate, leverage experience and experimentation.
