Agency - MERLIN
Manitoba Education Research and Learning Information Networks (MERLIN) was created as a special operating agency with the Department of Education, Training and Youth in April 1995. It was formed as a facilitating body to coordinate the delivery of technology services to the education community across Manitoba.
MERLIN was given a five-year mandate with the understanding that the mandate would be reviewed thereafter. In the summer of 2000, a five-year Effectiveness Review of MERLIN’s operation indicated that some of MERLIN’s methods for delivering services were not as well targeted to the needs of the education community as they could have been. Focus groups, surveys, and interviews with stakeholders and clients supported that view.
