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.

This project seeks to support the design, development, and initial delivery of a comprehensive cybersecurity curriculum, specifically role-based education and specialist tracks. These education tracks will equip women and men in the region with the skills and knowledge needed to fill open cybersecurity positions in the newly inaugurated Cybersecurity Centre of Excellence (CCoE) and help governments and organizations address cybersecurity threats. In addition, this project will help to fund scholarships and bursaries for enrolment in these courses, specifically the Cybersecure Catalyst’s Certifications for Leadership in Cybersecurity (CLIC) course, which provides two globally recognized industry certifications in cybersecurity, and for participation in a Women in Cybersecurity Leadership course. Finally, this funding will also be used to support the hiring of a local staff/consultants (a gender expert and a program manager), and the sustainability of the CCoE in Malaysia, through train-the-trainer programming for the CCoE staff related to both curriculum delivery and student success best-practices.
