All students registered in courses that appear on the official McGill transcript, and whose records (including from the Faculty of Education) are administered by the School, are members of the McGill Association of Continuing Education Students (MACES). Students taking Continuing Studies courses, but registered in programs administered by other McGill faculties, are members of other McGill student associations. Students registered in more than one program may belong to both MACES and other McGill student associations.

MACES was founded in 1985, incorporated in 1989, and a certificate of accreditation was issued in 1990. MACES’s mission is to advocate for its students' academic and social needs as well as to offer them a network where they can meet other diverse groups of students and professionals.

Additionally, the Association offers a variety of services for its members including a fully equipped computer lab, which is free for all members, Microsoft courses, as well as study, meeting, and social spaces in its building located at 3437 Peel Street, only minutes away from the McGill downtown campus. MACES also organizes and sponsors various events that provide an opportunity for students to build their social and professional network.

MACES has an ideal warm, relaxed ambiance for socializing, studying, or having a group meeting after a working day, before classes, and on weekends, a place where students are always welcome.

MACES is governed by its bylaws through the elected MACES Board of Directors. These executives are there to run the Association as well as to address students’ needs with an open-door policy.

Full details of MACES services, bylaws, officers, and committees are available from the Association (telephone 514-398-4974 or visit ).
