![]() Sport Funding and Accountability FrameworkThe Sport Funding and Accountability Framework (SFAF) is the process used by Canadian Heritage to identify which organizations are eligible for Sport Canada contributions under the Sport Support Program -- in what areas, at what level and under what conditions. First introduced in 1995-1996, this is the third edition of the Framework (SFAF III) and applies to the funding cycle: April 01, 2005 to March 31, 2010. The SFAF is a process with four components: Eligibility, Assessment, Funding and Accountability. Decisions to provide funding to an organization are made upon completion of this process. The SFAF III has three components:

Within each of these two areas, various assessment sections and components were rated and weighted to reflect the goals and priorities of the Canadian Sport Policy and measure each NSO's contribution to their achievement. The SFAF III Assessment Weighting Grid outlines the various sections and components with their relative weight.

Recognizing the varying strengths and capacities of NSOs, each will pursue the achievement of the accountability objectives in a sport-specific manner. To evaluate results and identify areas of greater or lesser progress, Sport Canada will monitor and assess the NSOs operating and strategic plans. These plans provide the basis of the NSO's accountability 'contract' with Sport Canada, and must incorportate the goals of the Accountability Framework , as well as sport specific performance indicators and targets for each policy area. This Accountability Framework and the NSOs implementation strategy will be the cornerstone of each NSOs funding relationship with the federal government. The three Accountability Policy Areas are Enhanced Excellence, Enhanced Participation, and Enhanced Capacity. Each policy area includes several specific NSO accountability areas. For each area, there is an objective and national standards. The nine NSO accountability areas are: Enhanced Excellence:
Enhanced Participation:
Enhanced Capacity:
Sport Funding and Accountability Framework: Multisport Service OrganizationEligibility Assessment Funding Accountability MSOs are required to work towards the National Standards outlined in the Sport Canada Accountability Framework for Multisport Service Organization. The Accountability Framework is the means by which the federal government ensures the achievement of key goals. All nationally funded organizations will be required to incorporate the Accountability policy areas within their strategic plans (including expected outcomes).
