Scaling Short Courses Across 25 Schools: How the University of Edinburgh Built a Unified CE Ecosystem

March 31st 9 AM PT | 12 PM ET | 45 minutes

How did the University of Edinburgh go from fragmented short course delivery across 25 schools to a single, unified CE ecosystem supporting 1,000+ courses and 11,500+ enrolments in under a year?

Save your spot!

Since launching in June 2025, the platform has supported over 1,000 courses, 7,000 unique learners, and more than 11,500 enrolments, all within a single, unified ecosystem.

Building a centralized continuing education platform across a large, complex institution is no small feat. With 25 schools, diverse learner audiences, and no shared infrastructure, the University of Edinburgh needed more than a new tool, they needed a complete rethink of how short courses were delivered, discovered, and managed.

In this session, the University of Edinburgh team takes center stage to share how they built a scalable, learner-first short course ecosystem from the ground up and what it truly takes to bring an entire institution along on the journey.

Joined by Kevin Martin, VP of Sector Strategy at Instructure, who will share why partnerships like this one represent the future of continuing education infrastructure and how institutions can navigate building an enterprise-ready CE ecosystem within the Canvas environment.

Attendees will gain insights into:

The strategic motivations behind expanding their short course ecosystem
How they approached coordination across multiple schools
What they learned about integrating operational workflows with learning delivery
How automation and integration helped streamline administrative processes
Practical advice for institutions considering similar initiatives
