The FUSION Skill Development Program is a series of interactive and self-directed online modules that you can take in Brightspace. FUSION helps you develop skills to work collaboratively, communicate effectively and tackle challenges so you can successfully navigate life, learning and work.
The FUSION program can benefit students in many ways. Watch the following video to hear what past participants have to say about their experience in FUSION.
Access to Modules
Starting in the fall 2024 term, the FUSION program will be available for self-enrolment to all undergraduate and graduate students.
The modules are also available as part of select academic courses (instructor’s choice) and as part of learning and training opportunities at Carleton. Please speak to your instructor or program/training facilitator to learn if FUSION modules are offered in your courses or training.
Pilot FUSION’s Latest Module
The FUSION team is creating more skill-development modules and we want your feedback. Carleton students are invited to pilot the latest FUSION module and share their feedback before it is available to the broader Carleton community.
Right now, the digital literacy pilot is underway. Digital literacy skills help you communicate better when sharing and receiving digital information. They allow you to use technology effectively to search for, generate and interpret digital content.
Piloting a module will take approximately five hours over the period of six weeks and involves:
- Reading instructions
- Answering two surveys
- Engaging with content about digital literacy
- Recording your reflections in a workbook and submitting that workbook
All students are invited to participate in a FUSION pilot.
FUSION is committed to designing and expanding skill development opportunities for equity-deserving students. Students from equity-deserving groups who complete a FUSION pilot will receive an honorarium of $50 on their campus card. There is a limit of one honorarium per student. According to the project’s funder, the following groups are considered equity-deserving:
- women and gender diverse individuals
- 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals
- persons with disabilities
- Indigenous People
- members of official language minority communities
- newcomers to Canada
- racialized groups
Starting in the summer 2025 term, the Digital Literacy module will be available for all students and a pilot for a new FUSION module will be offered.
