No. While both culminating tasks and milestones are aligned with the Curriculum Framework, they are different in their nature and serve different purposes with respect to assessment. Milestones are goal-related assessment activities that learners complete to demonstrate their abilities to carry out discrete goal-related tasks and are used to demonstrate progress from one Ontario Adult… Continue reading Can identification of successful milestones be an indicator of successful transition?

EOIS-CaMS does not track the specific culminating task chosen. This information will be included in the learner plan, but not in the EOIS-CaMS service plan. The focus of the culminating task is on the multiple competencies required to manage the environment of the learner’s goal. Until there is a sufficient number of goal path-specific culminating… Continue reading Can we use culminating tasks outside of the learner’s goal path if it supports their goals? Will this be allowed in EOIS-CaMS?

Yes, the ministry has updated the learner plan template to include a space for the name of the culminating task. It is important to note, however, that the learner plan template available on the Employment Ontario Partners’ Gateway (EOPG) is meant as an example of what a learner plan may look like, and service providers… Continue reading There is no option to identify specific culminating tasks in EOIS-CaMS (only Yes/No/No Response).

Yes, the memo applies to all Get SET (Skills, Education and Training) service providers, including e-Channel. Further program development work is required to address the need for a greater variety of culminating tasks, for significantly more culminating tasks to be digitized for the e-Channel network, and for a series of culminating tasks specifically focused on… Continue reading Does the Culminating Tasks memo apply to e-Channel as well?

The memo should be read as a reminder and explanation of existing policy, rather than an introduction of a new requirement. Its intent is to remind service providers about the requirement of culminating tasks in learner plans, to encourage service providers to use the new culminating tasks, if appropriate, and to record the data in CaMS… Continue reading What is the purpose of the Culminating Task memo?
