eConcordia Team

Built with a team of learning advisors specialized in online learning, graphic and multimedia designers as well as experienced faculty members, our courses allow Concordia’s students to learn from anywhere, at their own pace.

Our team has broad expertise in online learning and teaching, being behind many award-winning course designs. With interactivity and engagement as a constant emphasis, we put, however, at the forefront of all our courses the course objectives, making sure that student success is measured not by the number of online tools but by the learning outcomes.
