    Historically, both public and private university continuing education organizations have embraced a community engagement mission. The programs that emanate from this mission are varied in approach and curricula. What many have in common, however, is a strong commitment to collaboration between university and community experts in order to promote the quality of life in their communities. How are continuing education organizations choosing to engage with community? And what impact are they having?
