    • Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL)
      Canada’s anti-spam law (CASL) entered into force on July 1, 2014.

      • CASL requires companies to gain a consumer’s consent in order to send commercial electronic messages.
      • CASL helps protect consumers and businesses alike by deterring the most damaging and deceptive forms of spam from occurring in Canada, creating a more secure online environment.
      • CASL prohibits the sending of commercial electronic messages without the recipient’s consent (permission), including messages to email addresses and social networking accounts, and text messages sent to a cell phone.
      • CASL prohibits the alteration of transmission data in an electronic message which results in the message being delivered to a different destination without express consent.
      • CASL prohibits the installation of computer programs without the express consent of the owner of the computer system or its agent, such as an authorized employee.
      • CASL prohibits the use of false or misleading representations online in the promotion of products or services.
      • CASL prohibits the collection of personal information through accessing a computer system in violation of federal law (e.g. the Criminal Code of Canada).
      • CASL prohibits the collection of electronic addresses by the use of computer programs or the use of such addresses, without permission (address harvesting).

        Notice to college students on the disclosure of student enrolment data to the MAESD

        Collège Boréal is committed to respecting your privacy and protecting your personal information. In accordance with Section 39(2) of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. F.31, this is to advise you that your personal information is collected under the legal authority of the Ontario Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology Act, 2002, and may be used and/or disclosed for administrative, statistical and/or research purposes of the College and/or ministries and agencies of the Government of Ontario and the Government of Canada, including, but not limited to, tabulating and reporting data on Key Performance Indicators (graduation rate, graduate employment rate, graduate satisfaction rate and employer satisfaction rate). You may also be contacted by ministry- or college-authorized third parties for your voluntary participation in surveys to evaluate student and graduate experiences and outcomes.

        Collège Boréal is required to disclose personal information such as Ontario Education Numbers, student characteristics and educational outcomes to the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development under s. 15 of the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter M.19, as amended, under the authority of theOntario Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology Act, 2002, S.O. 2002, Chapter 8, Schedule F, Section 6. The ministry collects this data for the purposes such as planning, allocating and administering public funding to colleges, universities and other post-secondary educational and training institutions and to conduct research and analysis, including longitudinal studies, and statistical activities conducted by or on behalf of the ministry for purposes that relate to post-secondary education and training.  Further information on how the Minister of Advanced Education and Skills Development uses this personal information is available on the ministry’s website: http:www.tcu.gov.on.ca/.

        Notice of disclosure of personal information to Statistics Canada

        Statistics Canada is the national statistical agency. As such, Statistics Canada carries out hundreds of surveys each year on a wide range of matters, including education.

        It is essential to be able to follow students across time and institutions to understand, for example, the factors affecting enrolment demand at postsecondary institutions. The increased emphasis on accountability for public investment means that it is also important to understand ‘outcomes’. In order to conduct such studies, Statistics Canada asks all colleges and universities to provide data on students and graduates. Institutions collect and provide to Statistics Canada, student identification information (student’s name, student ID number, Social Insurance Number), student contact information (address and telephone number), student demographic characteristics, enrolment information, previous education, and labour force activity.

        The federal Statistics Act provides the legal authority for Statistics Canada to obtain access to personal information held by educational institutions. The information may be used for statistical purposes only, and the confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act prevent the information from being released in any way that would identify a student.

        Students who do not wish to have their information used can ask Statistics Canada to remove their identifying information from the national database. On request by a student, Statistics Canada will delete an individual’s contact information (name, address, or other personal identifiers) from the PSIS database. To make such a request, please contact us:

        • Strategic Mandate Agreement

          Each of Ontario’s 45 publicly funded colleges and universities has entered into a Strategic Mandate Agreement with the province highlighting institutional priorities for the period 2020-2025. The previous agreements ran from 2014 to 2017 and from 2017 to 2020.

          The 2020-2025 agreements focus on improving performance outcomes. They encourage institutions to direct their resources and invest in initiatives that will result in positive economic and labour market outcomes for students and the people of Ontario. They are posted here.   

          An English version of Collège Boréal’s Strategic Mandate Agreement can be found here.

           

          • Strategic Plan

            The Plan stratégique focuses on a longer period of five years. It was developed following a great deal of consultation. Its goal is to identify the steps the Collège has taken in a global or overall context and to orient day-to-day decision-making in accordance with the strategic focuses determined after wise reflection.
