The Canada—India Institutional Cooperation Project (CIICP) initiated in 1993 was the genesis of Center for Continuing Education Kerala (CCEK). When the project period ended the Government of Kerala decided to continue the project on its own. Accordingly, an autonomous body with the name ‘Center for Continuing Education Kerala’ was established in 1998 under the Department of Higher Education, Government of Kerala. Center for Continuing Education Kerala imparts need-based training to the unemployed youth, provides special training for small-scale industries, and conducts vocational training.
