CanOl, I believe the clear instruction till now is that FSW2014 will end on Apr 30th 2015 (unless there is an updated ministerial instruction) as shared in the Canada Gazette of April 26th 2104 when this program was announced open for the year. Please read page 5 of the pdf file.
What you have quoted is talking about transitioning to EE - and post successfully transitioning after this is implemented, which basically refers to after FSW2014 ends in April 2015 I believe.
It somehow is not letting me post the link to the gazette but you can google it with "Canada Gazette for 26 April 2014" and open the PDF version and check top of page 5 there.
Cheers!

Federal Skilled Worker Class
Cap on the number of applications to be processed
A maximum of 25 500 new complete applications submitted for
the Federal Skilled Worker Class, without an offer of arranged
employment,
will be considered for processing for the period of
May 1, 2014, to April 30, 2015, unless otherwise indicated in a
future Ministerial Instruction. The maximum of 25 500 new complete
applications is allocated as follows:
1. A maximum of 25 000 applications will be considered
for processing under an occupation list stream. Within the
25 000 cap, a maximum of 1 000 applications submitted for each
eligible occupation set out below will be considered for processing;
and
2. A maximum of 500 applications will be considered for processing
under a PhD student/graduate stream.
For further clarity, there is no limit on the number of new applications
with offers of arranged employment that will be considered
for processing.
In calculating the caps, applications will be considered in order
of the date they are received. Applications received on the same
date will be considered for processing having regard to routine
office procedures.
