According to forecasts by the Ministère de l'Éducation

The labour shortage in the job market in general creates an environment conducive to students dropping out of school. Major investments in education are planned over the next few years to encourage graduation, student retention and worker requalification.

Measures are also intended to promote student mobility, by attracting students from other regions of Quebec outside major urban centres or from abroad.

Full-time or alternating distance education, which began with the pandemic, will have required hiring additional resources to support faculty and students. While in-person instruction has returned to the norm, these non-traditional modes could continue to be integrated into students' academic careers.
