Untapped Potential - Mapping the Open Learning System

Using Calgary as a pilot region, this report maps the human capital ecosystem through three audits—demand, supply, and learning capacity. The conclusion of this mapping reveals a fragmented system of over 3,000 learning providers and 31,000 programs. The result is a disconnect between the supply and demand of human capital. The study presents a series of recommendations to enhance alignment, unlock the learning system's capacity, and tap the full potential of every citizen.

The full report will be released on September 29, 2025. In the meantime, please refer to the executive and audio summaries.
