About CSC
Curriculum Services Canada (CSC) is the Pan-Canadian standards agency for quality assurance in learning products and programs. We are an incorporated, not-for-profit organization that provides services including the development, implementation, evaluation, and accreditation of teaching and learning resources, and the delivery of professional learning opportunities online, using multimedia and social networking. Our organization works closely with governments, NGOs, industry, and agencies across Canada and internationally on initiatives related to learning and learner success at all ages and stages of life. CSC supports educators and community groups in taking a leadership role in their boards, schools, classrooms, organizations, and communities.
CSC is the parent organization for a family of quality services trusted by Canadian teachers. Our affiliate and charitable arm, The Curriculum Foundation (TCF), supports a Grants for Teachers program for the development of new teaching and/or learning resources.
Our professional staff collaborates closely with educators from all disciplines and has worked on projects ranging from curriculum implementation to leadership in schools, to programming for at-risk and special needs learners, to creating interactive websites for networking within communities of practice. These projects have resulted in the creation of video, print, and web-based learning resources and websites.
CSC's management system has been registered as being in conformity with ISO 9001 since May 2000, and the quality of our educational services is evaluated by Nipissing University every two years. Evaluations conducted by both ISO and Nipissing focus on assuring quality and consistent standards in CSC's policies and operational practices, thereby reinforcing the delivery of high-quality products and services for you, our client.
About CSC's Registered Charity
The Curriculum Foundation (TCF)
The Curriculum Foundation provides at least three $2000 grants every year to fund new learning resources developed by teachers.
CSC also provides mentoring and support for the projects we fund.
We consider these activities part of our mandate as a promoter of high-quality learning resources. Every learning resource we fund is brought to the highest standard before its release and has earned the CSC Seal, your guarantee of quality.
We post the resources we fund on our website for download so that every teacher can benefit from them for free.
