Or, to keep it in the future:

When the new education program is implemented in 2008, there will be an impending shift.

When the new education program (American English)  is implemented in 2008, there will be an impending shift.

When the new education programme (British English) is implemented in 2008, there will be an impending shift.

FOR THE BENEFIT OF MEMBERS WHO USE BRITISH ENGLISH, I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT 'PROGRAM' IS AMERICAN ENGLISH, WHEREAS 'PROGRAMME' IS BRITISH ENGLISH.

HOWEVER, THE WORD 'PROGRAM' IN 'COMPUTER PROGRAM' IS ALSO BRITISH ENGLISH.
