Tina Doyle, University of Toronto Scarborough's director of AccessAbility Services, will chair the Ontario government's new education standards development committee for post-secondary education, which is charged with recommending new guidelines as part of the Integrated Accessibility Standards Regulation.
The Post-Secondary Education Standards Development Committee is directed to consider disability accessibility barriers in publicly-funded colleges and universities. This leaves out any barriers in any post-secondary education and job training programs that are not offered in a publicly-funded college or university.
The first meeting of the Post-Secondary Education Standards Development Committee was held on Tuesday, February 6, 2018.
Doyle previously served as chair of the Inter-University Disability Issues Association and is currently a participant on the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development’s financial aid working group.
