Report of the CMEC working group on credit transfer 2011

In October 2002, [the Council of Ministers of Education, Canada] CMEC approved a strategy to improve credit transfer across Canada. Given the substantial differences in credit-transfer systems and postsecondary structures among provinces and territories, it was agreed that a pan-Canadian system of credit transfer should be built up over time, through an initial focus on developing and enhancing strong provincial/territorial transfer systems. Each province/territory committed to reviewing its current transfer arrangements and to developing a framework for action to enhance its credit-transfer system according to its own priorities over the period from 2002 to 2005. This report provides a summary of the actions undertaken by member jurisdictions of the working group.
