President’s Quarterly Progress Report: July - September, 2012

Abstract

The Board met for its annual meeting in Vancouver on June 8. Minutes of the meeting have been circulated. One of the highlights of this meeting was the approval of the new Three-Year Plan 2012-2015. Since the Board received comprehensive updates on COL’s work in the 2011-2012 year at this meeting, a Quarterly Report for the period April through June 2012 was not prepared. This report therefore focuses on the first quarter of COL’s 2012-2013 financial year, from July to September, 2012. The Chair of our Board of Governors, the Honourable Burchell Whiteman led the COL delegation at the 18th Conference of Commonwealth Education Ministers (18 CCEM) held in Mauritius during 28-31 August, 2012. I am very grateful to the Chair for undertaking the long journey to support COL and its new President at this important forum.
