Canadian Centre for the Study of Co-operatives

In 1984, the members of the co-operative sector (including Federated Co-operatives Limited, Credit Union Central of Saskatchewan, and the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool) partnered with the University of Saskatchewan and the Province of Saskatchewan to support the creation of the Centre for the Study of Co-operatives (now Canadian Centre for the Study of Co-operatives, or CCSC), a research and education centre devoted to co-operatives.

Since its inception, the CCSC has both produced interdisciplinary research, analysis, and conceptual tools that strengthen the co-operative sector and provide postsecondary-level educational programming for students and co-operative practitioners.
