Academic Upgrading programs are moving forward on the One Stop initiative in a variety of ways. Phase 1 of the Provincial Models of Program Integration project showed considerable activity between Academic Upgrading programs and a whole range of college and community programs, services and service organizations available to them. Because the project focuses on developing closer linkages with Job Connect and Pre-Apprenticeship/Apprenticeship programs, it was important to quantify these linkages and examine them in greater detail.

Surveys were conducted with both Academic Upgrading program managers (or program co-ordinators and leads) and front line deliverers to gather information for the study.
