You’re invited to join interactive discussions, where your insights and experiences are not only valued but celebrated.

Topic 3: AGM Registration and info
LQ AGM taking place Tuesday, June 20th, from 1-2 pm

Topic 4: Learner Recruitment
What do most people do to get the word out there about their learning services?
It is a constant challenge. Worth of mouth, networking, Adult Education Centers, referrals, etc. Many people are in crisis mode (financial and mental illness). Case needs to be built for English literacy, as many immigrants are going to francisation classes.
Worth of mouth, Adult Education Center (CDC Vimont), make tutor hours available, and social media. Challenging to get learners, they come in pockets. This year, TLE is attending graduations and year end celebrations in daycares, providing activities for children and resources for parents.
What is the best way to track learners? Do people track where their learners come from?
Application question in form.
What do learners mostly ask for help with?

  • Mainly English and Math, specifically English conversation (e.g. immigrants)
  • Seniors and digital literacy. Math referrals, specifically secondary 3 math, from Adult Education Centers.
  • Many want to improve their employability and know questions for job interviews.
  • They come for referrals, and for a variety of reasons (how to access technology, drivers license documents, etc).
  • People come to us with non-literacy related questions because we are one of the few English organizations.

Topic 5: Open Floor
PACTE: Some orgs received comments or correction demands.
Margo: You should have received an email from PACTE. You could have one of three statuses: validated, validated with comments, correction demanded (go in there and actually submit a reply). Next to the bubble, there will be a place where you can respond. They might wait until people submit corrections before receiving estimated amounts.
Question about the PACTE funding based on the consumer index.

Margo: Those minimums and maximums on the index have both been increased.
Did anyone apply for CELI?
TLE applied – will not receive funding.
South Shore will receive funding. Project entails working with students from ACCES (Adult Education Center) to teach them the nine skills for success via weekly classes, tutoring, and mentoring.
What is PACTE’S budget right now?
Last year 45 million, this year 49 million. An increase of 3%.
Global funding is 45 million, with 215 organizations, average: 212 000

FOLLOW UP since the meeting
Question about requiring audits –
In the PACTE Cadre Normatif it states that an audit is only required if your provincial funding exceeds $150,000.
Federal funds (such as CELI) are not included in this total.
