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.

The Off2Class Language Learning Platform upskills educators which results in powerful learning outcomes in their English Language Learner (ELL) students. In addition to providing structured content to facilitate targeted and effective ESL instruction (with embedded skills development for teachers), the Off2Class platform utilizes proprietary algorithms and machine learning techniques to measure and positively impact instructor efficacy. In our previous IRAP pilot project (2021-22), we were successful in advancing our capabilities to positively impact learning efficacy by quantifying teacher performance and enhancing instruction content and strategies. We were able to facilitate this through our algorithms and machine learning techniques, and the outcome allowed us to rank the performance of educators on Off2Class, and then pair them with students in our K12 school district clients. This project allowed us to commercialize our tutor offering (to complement our software/curriculum sa
