Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Further Examination of Blended Learning for Offshore Safety and Survival Competency

Agreement Number:

1019585

Duration: from Jul 22, 2024 to Jan 17, 2025
Description:

Past blended learning efficacy research has demonstrated a clear benefit for skill acquisition and retention in domains such as aviation, medicine, and academics; however, no research has specifically examined outcomes related to safety and survival training in the offshore context. Therefore, the primary goal of this project is to continue exploring the effectiveness of blended learning (digital content for theory combined with practical evaluation) in the context of offshore safety and survival training.
