Lifelong Learning Symposium

Event Details

Cambridge, MA
When:
June 25, 2026

Continuing education is an increasingly important strategic priority for universities, yet the environment in which it operates is changing rapidly. Learner expectations are evolving toward more seamless, end-to-end experiences. Technology continues to advance. Workforce needs are shifting. In response, continuing and executive education programs are being asked to adapt in thoughtful and meaningful ways.

Co-hosted with the Harvard University Division of Continuing Education, this one-day symposium brings together technical and functional leaders from across continuing education to examine how institutions are responding, leveraging technology to create more connected, learner-centered experiences and to support engagement and operational excellence across the full learner lifecycle.
