The Office of Extension and Culture (OEC) is delighted to announce that CUE is now a member of the Canadian Association for University Continuing Education (CAUCE). This professional association derives its strength from the quality of its membership and it maintains that strength through the collective and the individual engagement of members.
Established in 1954, CAUCE has evolved and grown to embrace more than 45 Canadian universities as well as individual professional members and affiliate organizations, providing numerous opportunities for PSIs and their staff to network with others interested in enlarging the scope and quality of university-level continuing education.

- Four Communities of Practice that reflect CAUCE member interests to help CUE and CAUCE staff to be an active part of the CAUCE community and benefit from networking and connecting with CUE colleagues across Canada.
