  • Overview Manitoba's Post-Secondary System
    POST-SECONDAY PATHWAYS IN MANITOBA Pathways to Education and Work Centre for the Study of Canadian and International Higher Education Qualifications: The Link Between Educational and Occupational Pathways and Labour Market Outcomes is a project funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. The four-year project investigates the nature of pathways within postsecondary education, and between postsecondary education and the labour market. As part of this project, the Provincial Pathways profile series lays the groundwork for further inquiry contrasting and comparing educational and occupational pathways in Canadian provinces and territories. Manitoba: Overview The degree of coordination of postsecondary education in Manitoba has fluctuated over the course of its history. An initial system of a single university governing a constellation of denominational colleges (Gregson, 1996) has evolved into a system of autonomous institutions, linked through an array of coordinating endeavors. The province’s present post-secondary system supports both English and French language learners. Manitoba’s large and expanding Indigenous populations are an impetus for innovation as traditionally structured institutions partner with Indigenous communities and educators to develop programs and institutional structures that provide “culturally sensitive” and place based education in the province’s North. (University College of the North, 2005). Manitoba’s Post-Secondary System Manitoba’s post-secondary education system is governed by the Advanced Learning Division of the province’s Education and Training Department. The system is comprised of Four universities Four public colleges and institutes Private, degree-granting religious institutes Private vocational training schools The system began with one university and an affiliated college system (Gregor, 1997).1 The Universities Establishment Act (1967) converted two of these colleges into universities in their own right: Brandon University (Brandon College) and the University of Winnipeg (United College).

  • Mothballing Manitoba's Council on Post-Secondary Education
    Canadian Journal of Educational Administration and Policy, Issue #170, August 13, 2015. © by CJEAP and the author(s). GOVERNANCE IN TRANSITION: MOTHBALLING MANITOBA’S COUNCIL ON POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION Dan Smith, University College of the North Examining the Government of Manitoba decision in 2014 to eliminate the Council on Post-Secondary Education, this article argues that government sought to exercise greater control over the public post-secondary system and its institutions in the province for the purpose of exacting greater control over system integration. While the elimination of the agency was consistent with the elimination of similar agencies in other provinces, the article finds that the direction of the new post-secondary governance model is less collegial and less consultative with more emphasis on regulation, and ministerial influence than was the case with the previous intermediary model, continuing trends in Manitoba towards greater government control. Introduction On June 17, 2014, the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba passed amendments to the Advanced Education Administration Act (AEAA), fundamentally altering the governance structure for the system of colleges and universities in Manitoba. In brief, the new act eliminated the Council on Post-Secondary Education (COPSE), ending the 47-year use of intermediary agencies as the model for governing post-secondary education in the province, turning that governance over to the minister responsible for colleges and universities. Undertaken with little notice (Martin, 2014) prior to being announced in the provincial budget, the passage of new legislation followed a brief but acrimonious public debate about the appropriate role of the government in the management of post-secondary education (Manitoba Legislative Assembly, Governance in Transition 2014; Winnipeg Free Press, 2014).
