The traditional boundaries between and among post-secondary institutions are transforming. The university is no longer the exclusive owner of knowledge. The disciplinary silos continue to erode as interdisciplinary learning continues to grow. Learning is no longer a one-time activity; now it’s a continuous practice. The need for accessible, applicable, skills-based learning paths is reshaping the relationship between post-secondary institutions, civil society and learners. Every university has to shift away from its traditional role as knowledge gatekeepers to become learning facilitators so that learners are able to gain knowledge and skills in a world increasingly characterised by risk, uncertainty and complexity.
