PROCEDE has a tradition of recognizing members and other individuals or groups who have contributed significantly to the advancement of English-language adult education and/or vocational training in Quebec. As part of an overall strategy to increase visibility for adult education and vocational training in English, the organization has formalized this recognition process.
Objectives of Annual PROCEDE Awards:
- To recognize, encourage and celebrate significant achievement within the extended PROCEDE community that contributes to the advancement of adult education, vocational training and lifelong learning in English;
- To recognize, encourage and celebrate similar achievement among PROCEDE partners and other individuals or groups external to the PROCEDE community who assist the organization in furthering its goals;
- To raise awareness and appreciation of English-language adult education and vocational training within the educational community and the community-at-large by publicizing the accomplishments of award winners;
- To reinforce PROCEDE’s leadership role in promoting and developing adult education, vocational training and lifelong learning in English.
