Thanks for sharing. Based on the mission of Kadenze and their current course selection, it appears this would mostly affect SIAT and maybe the School for Contemporary Arts.

SFU partners with online course provider
Simon Fraser University has partnered with the online education company Kadenze to offer SFU students access to online courses that might not be otherwise available through the university. The system will allow students to receive SFU academic credit for courses they take with recognized international institutions through the online portal. The program allows students to browse course offerings for free, then charges varying membership prices for services such as feedback on assignments or taking full-credit courses. Kadenze said that the cost of full courses starts at $300.
