The ministry business plan encompasses the department and all consolidated entities in its outcomes, key strategies, and performance measures and indicators . Ministry business plans are aligned with the strategic direction of the Government of Alberta . Outcomes are broad statements describing what the ministry wants to achieve . Key Strategies outline significant courses of action to be undertaken by the ministry to accomplish ministry outcomes . Performance Measures indicate the degree of success a ministry has in achieving its desired outcomes . Performance measures contain targets, which identify a desired level of performance to be achieved in each year of the business plan . Performance Indicators assist in assessing performance where causal links are not necessarily obvious . The ministry may or may not have direct influence on a performance indicator, and they are influenced by factors that are outside of government . Numbering of items in the components of the business plan is done for ease of reference and does not indicate priority rankings . Ministry business plans include budget information in the form of two financial tables: The Statement of Operations includes revenue and expense for each of the ministry’s major programs . Individual revenue and expense rows are presented on a gross ministry basis . Some ministries include an Inter-Ministry Consolidations row in order to present the ministry amounts on a consolidated basis as reported in the Government of Alberta Fiscal Plan. These adjustments are made to eliminate internal transfers and transactions between government entities (other than commercial entities) to avoid overstating revenue and expenses on a consolidated government basis . The Capital Investment table provides capital investment information for the ministry’s major programs . 4 MINISTRY BUSINESS PLANS 2016 –19 Advanced Education ACCOUNTABILITY STATEMENT This business plan was prepared under my direction, taking into consideration the government’s policy decisions as of March 17, 2016. original signed by Marlin Schmidt, Minister MINISTRY OVERVIEW The ministry consists of the Department of Advanced Education, the Access to the Future Fund and public post- secondary institutions. The following councils, boards and authorities provide advice to the minister: the Campus Alberta Quality Council, the Alberta Council on Admissions and Transfer and the Alberta Apprenticeship and Industry Training Board. Advanced Education strives to engage Albertans in learning to build a resilient economy and a thriving society. A more detailed description of Advanced Education and its programs and initiatives can be found at www.advancededucation.alberta.ca. STRATEGIC CONTEXT The outcomes and key strategies identified in this business plan are aligned with the strategic direction of the Government of Alberta. Alberta’s adult learning system is a critical part of the province’s social and economic fabric. It enriches the lives of individuals, their communities and the province as a whole. Adult learning also plays a key role in developing a sustainable and diversified economy. To support Alberta’s social and economic prosperity, Advanced Education strives to make affordable and high quality educational opportunities available to all Albertans. Adult education enables Albertans to prosper Investing in education is critical to ensuring Albertans can prosper. Higher levels of education are strongly related to job security, higher wages, career satisfaction and health. For these reasons, Advanced Education is committed to helping Albertans access learning opportunities. To do so, the ministry works with several hundred adult learning providers to provide an array of learning opportunities across the province. These providers range from community organizations that offer foundational training and skills development to universities and colleges offering undergraduate and graduate degrees. Adult education helps build vibrant communities Adult learning providers, students and graduates shape the social fabric of Alberta’s communities in a myriad of ways. Education plays a key role in creating engaged citizens. Individuals with certificates, diplomas and post-secondary degrees are more likely to vote, volunteer in their communities and donate to charitable organizations. Helping individuals improve literacy and acquire other foundational skills also enables more Albertans to fully participate ADVANCED EDUCATION BUSINESS PLAN 2016 –19 5 in their local communities. In addition to their primary mandate of educating Albertans, publicly-funded learning institutions act as community hubs in towns and cities across the province by serving as an access point for a variety of activities, services and events. They host meetings and conferences, plays and productions, and public lectures and workshops. Adult learning institutions also provide meaningful employment to thousands of Albertans and draw thousands of others to the province from across Canada and the world, enhancing the province’s cultural and economic vibrancy. Adult education is a key driver of economic development and diversification A well-educated workforce is a key driver of economic development. By providing Albertans with access to lifelong learning opportunities, Alberta’s adult learning system helps ensure Albertans are able to develop the skills and competencies
