General Deliverables

a. Each consortium, in consideration of the ARPDC goals, will work collaboratively with regional advisory committees (comprised of representatives from school authorities) and with one another to develop implementation plans, strategies and opportunities to meet provincial and locally identified needs in congruence with provincial direction.

Connecting the Dots

ERLC Goals
Vision:
“Partners in Adult Learning for Students’ Sake”

Outcomes

ERLC will model a responsive service oriented approach through collaborative practices

Actions
Each School jurisdiction was invited to send a representative to a planning meeting in June 2008. The group provided advice and direction to the building of the regional implementation plan; and will provide ongoing feedback about the plan, communicate the intent of the plan, gather evidence of success within their organizational network, identify future regional needs based on district needs and collaborate together to share lessons learned.
ERLC facilitates 8 – 10 different advisory committee meetings that meet between 2-3 times a year.  The fall 2008 meetings provided advice and direction for program planning. 
Executive Directors work collaboratively and meet formally between 4 – 6 times per year.  Informal meetings, including emails and phone conversations are very frequent!
