Strategic planning
2024-2028
Alone we go faster, together we go further!
R3USSIR’s DNA is simple: contribute to educational success and training-employment matching through the mobilization and commitment of regional stakeholders from diverse backgrounds.
With these people’s help, R3USSIR hopes to foster the development of individuals’ full potential, support their educational success and improve their skills, from early childhood throughout their integration into working life. All these concerted actions ultimately enhance the socio-economic vitality of the region.
As a result of this process, we have established a strong collective alignment that we are already carrying together, along with directions that will allow us, over the next four years, to act in coherence and complementarity.

Concerted mobilization and strategic planning process
Since January 2023, R3USSIR has brought together all the partners that are an integral part of its ecosystem to co-create strategic directions that will reflect the needs and aspirations of the Estrie region regarding educational success, school perseverance, and training-employment matching.
This approach was an invitation to collaborate in a concerted way, breaking down silos and pooling our experiences for the well-being of our community. In total, 322 individuals were consulted to co-construct the strategic plan.
To achieve these goals, a complex and rigorous process was put in place:

Our regional action priorities
The regional action priorities are the themes that emerged from consultation and around which there is added value in working collectively to act on educational success and training-employment matching in our region.
1. Valorizing graduation
Holding a diploma or qualification, whatever the level of education achieved or the route taken, greatly enhances someone’s quality of life and employability. We value all types of diplomas and qualifications and promote their benefits.
2. Reading and writing skills
Developing reading and writing skills from childhood and throughout life helps individuals to do better at school and adapt better to the world of work. Promoting the pleasure of reading, providing access to reading, raising awareness, and networking with businesses: all strategies are needed to improve the current situation.
3. Course of study or career choice
The transition to a new course of study or career is an important stage, when doubts and questions multiply. What are the choices I will face in the future? What paths are available? We work in partnership with organizations and professionals to support individuals in these transition periods. We multiply opportunities for professional exploration, value all career paths, and make the networks surrounding young people aware of the importance of supporting them at these pivotal moments.
4. School-work balance
Given that the first and foremost job for a young person is to attend school, we work with employers, families, and youth to ensure that academic success remains their top priority. We work together to help young people achieve a healthy balance between school and work, and in all other areas of their lives.
5. Parental support and involvement
Parental support and involvement have positive effects on children’s educational perseverance and success. We highlight the benefits of this involvement and establish strategies to valorize parents and better equip them in their supportive role. We react to the needs of families and promote collaboration between school, family, and community stakeholders all for the well-being of students.
