In 2024 UC entered a strategic partnership with Business Canterbury (formerly CECC). This partnership nurtures local talent, preparing our graduates for the rapidly changing world of work, and driving our economy forward.
Business Canterbury Chief Executive Leeann Watson commends UC’s impact on the community, noting, “The University of Canterbury does an amazing job of sharing their research and expertise, which benefits our entire region. In return, insights from the business community help ensure UC graduates have the right skills for today’s job market.”
The strategic partnership aims to leverage UC’s academic excellence and Business Canterbury’s industry connections to foster local talent and drive economic development.
The partnership has presented opportunities to be involved in Business Canterbury events and seminars as a strategic partner.
