International Education Framework
The International Education Framework recognizes the importance of international education to Alberta’s future economic and social success. It provides a roadmap to ensure international education activities are strategic, integrated and effective, mutually beneficial, high-quality, sustainable, and support Government of Alberta priorities and objectives.
Developed under the direction of Minister Horner, the framework was released on November 27, 2009.

Priority directions outlined in the framework have been developed to support the following outcomes:
- Development of Alberta's knowledge-driven future
