      History

      The Teacher and Student Information Services Team of the Ministry of Education and Training was created in 1993 as part of the Elementary, Secondary and Postsecondary Operations and French-Language Education Division.

      The Team assumed some of the responsibilities of the College Affairs Branch and the University Affairs Branch of the defunct Ministry of Colleges and Universities, and the Registrar Services Section of the former Centre for Teacher Education of the defunct Ministry of Education.

      The new Team was organized into three sections: Policy/Program (which ceased to exist in 1994), Data Services (which ceased to exist in 1995), and Program Services.

      The Teacher and Student Information Services Team ceased to exist in 1996, and its responsibilities were divided between various branches in the Corporate Management and Services Division, the Elementary and Secondary Operations and French-Language Education Division, and the Postsecondary Education Division.
