Slide 11
Evaluation results Reality and observations A.Establish and
implement financial procedure policies B.Policies and standards to
implement and the succession
Slide 12
A. Establish and implement financial procedure policies In

in the communities.
Slide 14
Assist communities Propose policy models Provide ongoing
training to managers (in accounting) Some communities have provided

Slide 17
Factors and Tendencies All communities visited indicate that
they want to develop ICT policies that corresponds to their
strategic approaches and needs for sustainable, systematic, and
innovative applications of ICTs. All communities indicate that some
policies currently exist in regards to Internet use, code of ethics
etc., but further validation and needs analysis is required to
ensure comprehensive review of the ICT governance standards
presented. Planning tools to support the alignment of existing
policies to the new standards is recommended. All communities
recommend that a baseline assessment is needed in order to assess
and monitor their level of ICT integration.
Slide 18
Factors and Tendencies (cont) All communities recommend that
training and support is needed to support the development of ICT
policies; All communities recommend that all supporting guides,
reference materials, templates be made available on-line. This
would also comprise of the toolbox of services available at
FNEC.
Slide 19
Next Steps Follow up with the communities visited; Schedule
meetings with other communities; Complete all reports and confirm
report validation by the community; Prepare and action plan;
Support communities in the development of these standards:
Training; Guides; Templates; Consultation.

Slide 22
Findings and Trends All communities encountered wish to develop
a policy that fits their approaches, their objectives and their
guiding principles; They appreciate being able to set up a
structure that fits their values and their realities.
Slide 23
Findings and Trends (contd) They want to diversify the means of
communication between schools, parents and the community; As
elsewhere in the province, communities are faced with the
difficulty of recruiting and retaining motivation (both committee
members and parents).
Slide 24
Findings and Trends (contd) Given the high number of young
parents, most communities would like to provide training in
parenting skills.
Slide 25
Next steps - PCI Followed with communities encountered; First
meeting with the other communities; Writing a report by the FNEC
and validation of the report by the community; Preparing an action
plan; Support from the communities CEPN steps to achieve the
standards PCI (training, tools, advice, research, etc.); Awareness
campaign coming in communities: "Im involved!".

Slide 30
Initial Observations (findings) 1.The communities have
standards that reflect those developed through the project
2.Generally, planning processes do not exactly meet strategic
planning standards. 3.Communities indicated a need to improve on
their follow- up as related to existing planning processes. 4.There
are community processes (standards) that are unwritten. These are
custom (to the community).
Slide 31
Premiers constats 5.Annual action (operational) plans serve as
success plans and reflect Annual Planning standards. 6.The action
plans in place are guided by program guidelines and to the extent
possible by the educational missions. 7.Performance Measurement
standards are closely linked with elements of the planning
objectives and expected results. 8.The roles of the various
authorities in the planning, consultation and approval processes is
determined locally.
Slide 32
Premiers constats 9.It is difficult to plan strategically given
the funding and program challenges imposed by AANDC. 10.Engaging in
a formal strategic planning process requires expertise, time,
personnel and resources that the Education Sector doesnt
necessarily have. 11.The nature of AANDC funding (uncertain and
untimely) is considered a risk. 12.Training and tools on risk
assessment and risk management would be welcome.
Slide 33
Next Steps Continue community self-evaluations Draft
development plans in collaboration with communities Develop
training and tools in accordance with the needs and priorities of
communities. 3
