History
The Community Education and Outreach Branch was created in 1991, assuming some of the functions of the Curriculum Policy Development Branch. In addition, the Provincial School Attendance Officer was transferred from the defunct Program Implementation and Review Branch to the Community Education and Outreach Branch. The new Branch was part of the Learning Programs Division.
In 1992, the Community Education and Outreach Branch became part of the Education Programs and Services Division and was divided into three units: Antiracism and Ethnocultural Equity, Integration/Promotion, and Lifelong Learning.
In February, 1993, the Community Education and Outreach Branch became part of the new Ministry of Education and Training.
The Community Education and Outreach Branch ceased to exist in the fall of 1993. The Integration/Promotion Unit (renamed Integration/Compensatory Projects Unit) and the Lifelong Learning Unit were combined with the Access and Equity Unit of the Policy and Programs Branch of the defunct Ministry of Colleges and Universities to form the new Access and Equity Team. The Antiracism and Ethnocultural Equity Unit became the Antiracism and Ethnocultural Equity Team. Both Teams were part of the new Antiracism, Access and Equity Division.
