“Our number-one priority is to grow the economy and create jobs”

Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development:

• Making college and university education

more affordable and accessible through OSAP reforms such as:

• Providing non-repayable grants to

students from families with incomes of $83,000 or less.

• Ensuring that students from families

with incomes of less than $50,000 will have no provincial student debt.

• Improving access to postsecondary

education and training for First Nation, Métis and Inuit learners through continuing the three-year, $97 million investment

9

• Stand-alone Aboriginal Institutes

Policy;

• Nine Aboriginal Institutes (AI)

receive annual funding now with university partners for credential, from project and proposal funding

• Increasing access to postsecondary

education opportunities and ensuring success of Indigenous learners

• Partnership opportunities to offer

capacity support, including program development and quality assurance.

10

• The 2016 Report of the Advisory Committee on

French-language Postsecondary Education in Central and Southwestern Ontario recommended that government create a Francophone-governed French- language university that provides a vibrant French- language living and learning environment.

• Planning board established; Dr. Dyane Adam chairs
• Third-party agency hired to conduct Student Interest

and Market Demand Study, to asses s need and interest for a French-language university.

• MAESD communicated its intent to establish a

French-language University (subject to the advice and recommendations of the Planning Board and results of the market demand study).

• Planning Board will deliver their report on the design

elements, location and costs of a new French- language university to government in early Summer 2017.

More experiential learning is a good thing. Students want their education to lead to jobs. Undergraduate education is too often 3rd priority behind research and graduate education. The need for outcome measures as opposed to input. The need for better trusted data.

• The ministry anticipates there may be various

scenarios emerging with the new corridor approach:

• Institutions interested in voluntary enrolment

decline for strategic reallocation;

• Institutions expecting a flat-line scenario;

and,

• Institutions expecting moderate growth.
