Status of Women committee From a learning perspective, every time there's a new policy we're involved, but we're involved especially to be aware of it so that we can ensure our instructors are aware of it and our materials are up to date as soon as the policy is put in place. We don't set policy—that's the Treasury Board—but we are part of the process.

Status of Women committee The school's offering strategy depends on demands. We essentially offer those courses on our website. As soon as we get a demand that is significant enough and worth an actual offering, then we do those offerings. In these particular cases, they are not offered that often, because the school is responsive to the actual demand.

Status of Women committee Again, if there's enough demand in a particular region, it would be offered in that region. If the demand is not there.... It's offered where the demand is, at those 13 points of service.

Status of Women committee The statistics we have are public service-wide. We mentioned MOUs with departments; these are relationships we build organization to organization to meet their learning needs. We have a strong relationship with Environment Canada for Creating a Respectful Workplace. But I do not have the breakdown for each department.

Status of Women committee The school could provide statistics on that breakdown. I would just caution that the school is one provider that a department can use. We feel that departments always have a more comprehensive picture of how they choose to meet their learning strategies and who they choose to use as the supplier.

Status of Women committee Sure. Just as a point of clarification, in the orientation program it was 42,000.

Status of Women committee That's fine. As I mentioned last time, and as the opening remarks outlined, the number of learners who go through the school has sort of a pyramid effect. The wider, the more foundational the learning part of it is, the more users we have at the school. The more precise we go, the smaller the target audiences are for those products.

Status of Women committee Creating a Respectful Workplace, in itself, is a very valuable product, but the concepts of Creating a Respectful Workplace are included in many other products that aren't listed here. We did not want to go through the whole school curriculum. In terms of the more precise courses, we don't have here the statistics of the whole community, so it is hard to tell the exact proportion that we are hitting.

Status of Women committee Exactly. The duration of the course is the big driver for the total cost. Investigating Harassment Complaints is a five-day course. Essentially, when we cost our products, we look at all the direct and indirect program costs and we amortize that by the number of learners we anticipate to have, as well as the length of the course.
