The Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (С»ÆÊéÊÓƵ) is Canada’s only all-graduate institute of teaching, learning and research in the field of education. Standing on the shoulders of a great University, С»ÆÊéÊÓƵ is committed to collaborating and partnering with the communities it serves, and welcomes the participation of members both internal and external to С»ÆÊéÊÓƵ on advisory boards and committees. Advisory bodies create bridges of understanding and enhance our relations with public and the broader education community.
