Getting frank with Franklin
Getting frank
with Franklin
Linda Franklin is the president and CEO of Colleges Ontario, the advocacy association for the province’s 24 colleges.
Did you know that as of right now, colleges can offer and deliver four-year degrees but not three-year degrees? Instead, colleges are required to offer three-year advanced diplomas in many areas important to the economy.
This is something of a global anomaly. In most of the world, post-secondary programs that are essentially the same as our colleges’ three-year programs award degrees to graduates rather than diplomas.
