**Ministry of Advanced Education**

Advanced Education supports Albertans by providing the education and training opportunities they need to prepare for the workforce. This is accomplished by: approving programs of study; funding public post-secondary institutions and other adult learning providers; providing financial aid for learners; and supporting academic research and innovation. Programs and services are driven by 3 outcomes: (1) Adult learning opportunities are accessible and affordable for all Albertans; (2) High-quality education, skills development and research make a positive contribution to Alberta’s economy, society, culture and environment; and (3) The adult learning system is accountable and coordinated.

The Strategic and Business Services division provides leadership and coordination for all aspects of the policy development cycle, intergovernmental relations, governance and legislative services, data and analytics, and the ministry’s corporate services functions.

**Role Responsibilities**:
The Policy and Issues Coordinator is a key member of the Assistant Deputy Minister's Office (ADMO) within the Strategic and Business Services division. The position supports the management and coordination of policy, information, and current and emerging issues in the division. In this role, you will work closely with senior government leadership and gain a keen understanding of government issues and policies impacting Alberta’s adult learners and the post-secondary education system. You will leverage and develop skills in writing/editing, issues management, relationship building, and project and policy coordination. No two days are the same in an ADMO, so you are asked to bring to the team a positive “can do” attitude, a curious mind, a dedication to accuracy, and the ability to juggle competing demands.

Reporting to the Strategic Issues Manager, the Policy and Issues Coordinator regularly works with the Assistant Deputy Minister (ADM), Executive Directors, Ministerial Correspondence Unit (MCU), Communications, other Advanced Education ADMOs, Deputy Minister’s Office (DMO), and division staff to provide the Minister and Deputy Minister (DM) with high quality information.

**Information, Issues, and Project management**:

- Assists the Strategic Issues Manager in addressing and coordinating responses to urgent and emerging issues for the Strategic and Business Services division and ministry.
- Responsible for tracking key deliverables to ensure timely and accurate responses.
- With support from the Strategic Issues Manager, acts as a liaison on issues and requests from the DMO, Minister's Office (MO), MCU, Communications, other ADMOs, and division staff.
- Assists in coordinating and gathering information from program areas for responses to DM, Minister, and ADM requests on an as needed and urgent basis.
- Coordinates divisional program and policy projects, including the implementation and evaluation of post-secondary institution annual reporting to ensure compliance with the Post-secondary Learning Act.

**Role Cont'd**:
**Management of Information (Action Requests, Briefings), and Correspondence**:

- Writes, reviews, and edits various types of correspondence prior to the Strategic Issue Manager’s and ADM’s review, to ensure appropriate tone, content and format, and consistency with the department’s priorities and position, consulting with professional and technical staff as needed.
- Manages communications and information requirements to ensure the efficient and effective operation of the division and ADMO.
- Ensures effective and timely drafting, review, and coordination of responses through consultation with relevant program areas, as needed.
