In my role as Minister, I am looking forward to listening and learning about the sector.  \nThe Ministry continued to make strategic investments in student spaces, programs and infrastructure. The Ministry continues to support the success of Aboriginal learners through continued implementation of the Aboriginal Post-Secondary Education and Training Policy Framework and Action Plan. In the fall of 2016, leaders from public post-secondary institutions and Aboriginal institutes of higher learning met to discuss the implementation of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada Calls to Action in the public post-secondary sector, and the role that postsecondary institutions can play in reconciliation.  \nGovernment Communications and Public Engagement (GCPE) is also part of the Ministry. GCPE uses traditional communications practices and various digital communication platforms to inform citizens about the availability of government programs and services. GCPE supported the improvement and expansion of online services, including delivering on the Mental Health and Substance Use Digital Hub, the creation of the digital Medical Services Plan enrollment and premium assistance forms as well as the online Foodsafe certification look-up tool.  \nI would like to take the opportunity to thank our partners in post-secondary education throughout the province who support the [endeavours ofB.C. post-secondary students](endeavours ofB.C. post-secondary students), and the Ministry staff for their work in helping to prepare this report.  \nThe Ministry of Advanced Education 2016/17 Annual Service Plan Report was prepared under my direction in accordance with the Budget Transparency and Accountability Act and compares the actual results of the Ministry to the expected results identified in the 2016/17-2018/19 Service Plan. I am accountable for those results as reported.  \nHonourable Linda Reid Minister of Advanced Education June 16, 2017  \nTable of Contents  \nMinister’s Message and Accountability Statement................................................................................. 3  \nPurpose of the Ministry........................................................................................................................... 5  \nStrategic Direction and Context .............................................................................................................. 5  \nReport on Performance ........................................................................................................................... 7  \nGoals, Objectives, Strategies and Performance Results ......................................................................... 9  \nFinancial Report .................................................................................................................................... 20  \nDiscussion of Results ........................................","cbCaimRyFEU7fv1S","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimRyFEU7fv1S","pdf",641029,"English","# Minister’s Message and Accountability Statement\n# Purpose of the Ministry\n# Strategic Direction and Context\n# Report on Performance\n# Goals, Objectives, Strategies and Performance Results\n# Financial Report\n## Discussion of Results\n## Financial Report Summary Table\n## Income Statement for Universities and Colleges 1\n## Major Capital Projects\n# Appendix A – Contact Information and Hyperlinks\n# Appendix B – List of Crowns, Agencies and Boards\n# Appendix D – Minister’s Mandate and Actions Summary","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Ministry of Advanced Education in British Columbia?\",\"answer\":\"It provides leadership and direction for a post-secondary education and training system, supports students’ access to post-secondary education, and helps ensure the province has skilled workers for labour market needs.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the report describe support for Aboriginal learners?\",\"answer\":\"It highlights continued implementation of the Aboriginal Post-Secondary Education and Training Policy Framework and Action Plan.\"},{\"question\":\"What communications and digital initiatives are included under Government Communications and Public Engagement (GCPE)?\",\"answer\":\"GCPE uses communications practices and digital platforms to inform citizens and supports improvements such as mental health and substance use digital hub delivery, online forms for medical services enrollment and premium assistance, and the online Foodsafe certification look-up tool.\"}]","Ministry of Advanced Education 2016/17 Annual Service Plan Report - Minister’s Message and Accountability Statement | PDF",1792054682,76]
