In last week’s OCUFA Report, we reported that the Government of Ontario plans to hold consultations over the summer on reform to the province’s higher education sector. There will be four half-day consultations in the GTA on specific topics, and three regional roundtables. Dates for the consultations have now been set:
- July 19 – Humber College (GTA) – Quality Teaching and Learning Outcomes
- July 24 – Fanshawe College (London) – Regional West
- July 25 – Ryerson (GTA) – Experiential Learning
- July 26 – Laurentian (Sudbury) – Regional North
- August 9 – University of Waterloo (GTA) – Technology-Enabled Learning
- August 14 – Algonquin College (Ottawa) – Regional East
- August 15 – UOIT (GTA) – Expanded Credential Options
OCUFA will be sending representatives to every consultation, to ensure the faculty perspective is prominent in the discussions. We will also be making a written submission on the government’s discussion paper.
