About

Each year, we begin our annual report journey by sharing a bit about our organization. In the past, that meant shedding light on our organizational structure and sharing information about the teams who work closely with our college partners (e.g., Project Management, Partner Success Office, Strategic Initiatives, and Contact Centre).

This year, we're focusing on resurfacing the most essential elements of OCAS’ Strategic Plan, which was unveiled two years ago. This includes our purpose, vision, mission, values, and strategic pillars.

Our Strategic Plan has been instrumental in charting our efforts throughout the year. By keeping our mission at the forefront, we ensured that each initiative was aligned with our goal of supporting the Ontario college system and fostering a collaborative environment with our partners. Our vision of enabling everyone to benefit from lifelong learning through Ontario colleges also served as a beacon, guiding our focus toward the achievements detailed in this report.

While our Strategic Plan is relatively new, our dedication to supporting Ontario colleges is not. For more than 30 years, our focus has been on creating new pathways for applicants to explore and connect with Ontario’s colleges. During that time, we've often leveraged technology and innovation – along with close collaboration with our college partners – to navigate troubled waters.
