Abstract

The article describes the strategies of university education at the federal and provincial levels, its implementation in the context of continuing education. At the state level, there are four main imperatives of continuing education: learning and development in the early childhood; a system of education that covers primary to secondary education; professional education; an adult education and skills development. Among the goals of public education policy in Canada is the provision of opportunities for continuing education, training opportunities for professional functioning and ensuring the coordination of adult education programs at the national level. The management of university education is based on an integrated combination of basic imperatives with the initiatives and programs of other ministries and provincial government. At the regional level, collegial national forums coordinate the creation of a constructive environment through a variety of mechanisms and reporting to the community of Canada and the international community.Universities offer combined training (in the classroom and at work), additional programs: basic adult education, advanced education, industrial training, technical and vocational training, continuing vocational education programs, preparatory programs for entering the university; one-year certified and two-year diploma programs in different fields, integrated programs that culminate in obtaining a college and university diploma. Universities offer curricula for initial and postgraduate vocational education, certification programs, including distance learning. The problem for university education is the recognition and assessment of prior learning.
