2022 01 27 RMCSD Howard

The recognition of military-connected learners in Canada has garnered limited attention, but this area of study remains in its infancy. Military-connected students face real and perceived barriers to higher education that may negatively impact learning, post-military success, and employment if not systematically addressed. This presentation will discuss a conceptual framework which accounts for the inclusion of an underrepresented group of adult learners in postsecondary education. 
 

Following a 25-minute presentation, the audience will be encouraged to challenge and discuss with relevant questions. These will be non-partisan discussions aimed at generating thought-provoking responses allowing all parties to become better informed on security and defence.
