DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION REORGANIZATION

 

As a further step in the reorganization of the Department of
Education, Dr. Jack Newberry 4s been appointed Assistant
Superintendent, Post-Secondary Programmes, and will be

especially involved with the development of College Career

and University Transfer Programmes. In addition, he will .
continue to advise the Finance and Planning Divisions, and

be a member of the budget review team.

The appointment of a Superintendent of Post-Secondary
Programmes is expected shortly. Since Mr. Soles, the Associate
Deputy Minister, and Dr. Newberry have an academic orientation,
it is intended to appoint a Superintendent who has a strong
background in Vocational and Industrial Education.

In a further phase it is intended to appoint four directors
and a number of coordinators of Post-Secondary Programmes.
The directors will have a general supervisory responsibility
for educational and budget development in the following areas:

Industrial ( non-designated trades )

Trades

Career

Continuing Education - Directed Studies.
The coordinators will work in programme areas such as
Industrial, Apprenticeship, Engineering, Health, Business,
Upgrading, Visual Arts, Languages, and Community Services.
In some of these areas the coordinators will also be respons-
ible for the same programmes at the Secondary School level.
The coordinators function will entail a strong liaison role
with Colleges, Industry, and Government in developing and
monitoring programmes. It is expected that these personnel
will spend approximately fifty percent of their time in the
field. ;
