Launched as part of the federally funded Future Skills Centre (FSC), FUSION consists of a network of Canadian universities that is focused on exploring innovative approaches for skill development in higher education to prepare students for the future economy.

The six partnering universities include: Memorial University, Concordia University, Carleton University, University of Saskatchewan, University of Calgary, and Simon Frasier University.

FUSION aims to develop and scale effective approaches to skill acquisition for post-secondary students by: increasing access to and success at university for underrepresented students, integrating skill development in formal and informal learning; and developing flexible learning formats to better facilitate skill acquisition for post-secondary students.

The following video introduces FUSION and the FUSION Skills Development Curriculum.
