About Toronto Metropolitan

Toronto Metropolitan University is Canada's leader in innovative, career-focused education and a university clearly on the move. It is a distinctly urban university with a focus on innovation and entrepreneurship. Toronto Metropolitan University has a mission to serve societal need and a long-standing commitment to engaging its community.

Raymond Chang School of Continuing Education is Canada's leading provider of university-based adult education.
