Colleges Ontario is the advocacy voice for the province's 24 colleges.

Maureen Adamson, the sixth president of Fleming College in Peterborough and former Deputy Minister of Tourism, Culture, and Sport for the government of Ontario will become the Interim president and CEO of Colleges Ontario, effective January 1, 2025.

Colleges Ontario continues to urge the federal government to ensure full understanding of the impacts of these policy changes on affordable childcare, dental care, health care, housing construction, and business investments in advanced manufacturing, including EVs.

The recent changes to the Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP) eligibility introduced by the federal government will have profound and far-reaching consequences for Ontarians. We are deeply disappointed that these decisions were made without consideration of how they will impact everyday people across Ontario and without consultation with the province.

Colleges Ontario's CEO and President, Marketa Evans, has written an open letter to Minister Marc Miller, expressing our strong objection to the federal government’s decision to end automatic work permits for international students attending Ontario’s public colleges.
