Purpose

The purpose of this committee is to identify issues as they relate to the operation and delivery of credit programming (regardless of the register - day school or continuing education) in Ontario adult schools. Once such issues are identified and possible solutions are discussed, the committee will forward its concerns and proposals to the CESBA executive for its consideration. This committee will also solicit input from other adult credit educators at the fall and spring CESBA Conference Networking Sessions. Anyone wishing to communicate with the committee at other times may contact the committee chair, David Mowat, at david.mowat at ucdsb.on.ca or 1-613-937-0120 extension 115.

Material for the PLAR training has been placed on a bilingual website dedicated to PLAR for Mature Students initiatives and activities: www.plarformaturestudents.com.
