Campus Manitoba and its partner institutions are proud to host the second annual Open Horizons Symposium on June 11 to 12, 2026. Building on the success of its inaugural year, this event continues to meet a vital need within Manitoba’s post-secondary sector: creating a dedicated space for educators, leaders, and practitioners to connect, collaborate, and innovate.

Open Horizons offers a dynamic environment to explore and advance conversations on open education, affordability, accessibility, and digital innovation – key areas shaping the future of learning. This two‑day event brings together diverse voices from across Manitoba and beyond to share emerging practices, strengthen cross‑institutional partnerships, and inspire collective action to expand educational opportunities for all Manitobans.

Join us as we build, share, and do, charting practical pathways toward a more open, inclusive, and innovative educational landscape.
