Algonquin’s RCM Project featured as case study at ASCC Conference

Posted on Wednesday, October 22nd, 2014

Responsibility Center Management (RCM) empowers academic and non-academic units to manage their own resources. RCM stewardship is expected to play a key role across the College in every program by supporting decentralized governance and fiscal management, inspiring 360° views to budget optimization, and igniting innovative and entrepreneurial initiatives.

Duane McNair (VP, Finance & Administration), Claude Brulé (VP, Academic), Cathy Dempsey (Director, Finance & Administration) and Sandy Finnigan (RCM Project Manager) shared their experiences in leading the first phases of Algonquin’s transition to full RCM at the 47th annual Administrative Services Coordinating Committee (ASCC) conference. The presentation was very well attended, and great discussion and sharing of ideas occurred.

The conference, held this year in Toronto (October 19 – 21), provides opportunities for finance, purchasing and physical resources staff and management of Ontario’s 24 colleges to share “best practices” and strengthen the vision of college education in our Province.
