About CCL

Our Vision

To be a catalyst for lifelong learning across Canada

Our Mission

To improve lifelong learning across the country by:

  • Informing Canadians about the state of learning in Canada;
  • Fostering quality research on learning;
  • Facilitating evidence-based decisions about learning through knowledge exchange to ensure that success stories are shared and repeated; and
  • Becoming Canada's authoritative resource on learning issues.

The Canadian Council on Learning (CCL) is an independent, non-profit corporation that promotes and supports research to improve all aspects of learning—across the country and across all walks of life.

Funded by Human Resources and Social Development Canada, CCL was created in 2004 following a series of nationwide consultations on innovation.  Canadians agreed that lifelong learning is essential to make Canada a world leader in innovation, skills and learning.
