About us
The Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) is an agency of the Government of Ontario, established to contribute to the improvement of Ontario's postsecondary education system. HEQCO is mandated to conduct research, evaluate the postsecondary education system and provide policy recommendations to the Minister of Training, Colleges and Universities on improving system quality, access and accountability. Through its evidence-based research, knowledge mobilization and engagement with leaders in the sector, HEQCO continues to explore the pathways to critically important student and system outcomes. As the only organization of its kind in Canada, HEQCO is building on the vision that led to its creation in 2005, as it evolves toward evidence-based solutions to the overarching challenges facing the Ontario’s postsecondary system. Ontario’s future economic health depends upon the province’s ability to restructure its economy from traditional manufacturing sectors to new and emerging industries and services. To be successful, the province requires a talented and highly educated citizenry; enhanced entrepreneurship, innovation and productivity; and discoveries, insights and new knowledge. Because of the students they educate, the discoveries and innovations they foster and the communities they support, these outputs of Ontario’s colleges and universities are instrumental to the future success and prosperity of Ontario. A high-quality postsecondary education system should provide Ontarians with the greatest opportunities for social mobility and economic success, act as a magnet to recruit the best talent to Ontario, create and support a robust economy and jobs grounded in an increasingly competitive knowledge-based worldwide economy, improve opportunities for regional economic and social development, and foster an engaged, socially aware and civic-minded Ontario population.

Our most recent publication is part of a broader HEQCO project on how students transition from their time in postsecondary to participating in the labour market. Our most recent report found that the shift from school to work varies widely among individuals. You can read that report here: https://lnkd.in/etN7swDF In January we published an infographic on how postsecondary graduates feel about career services offered by their institutions. You can find it here: https://lnkd.in/eAUMy4dH We also recently published a blog post on how the expectations of recent graduates matched the realities of transitioning to the labour market. You can read the post here: https://lnkd.in/eGk4PzZk Our report from October summarizes the results of a student survey on career-related activities. You can find out more about what types of activities students participate in and which they found most helpful here: https://lnkd.in/ghDpEsbC #highered #ONpse #cdnpse

As part of our project on school-to-work transitions, HEQCO has published a new report on the transition from postsecondary studies to the labour market. We found that students from historically marginalized groups face worse labour market outcomes despite participation in school-to-work transition supports. Institutions can continue to work to better understand and address the unique challenges faced by different groups, ensuring equitable access to experiential learning and career services, and developing tailored interventions to support these students effectively.
