  • A Critical Analysis of Apprenticeship Programs in British Columbia
    A Critical Analysis of Apprenticeship Programs in British Columbia by Gregory Matte A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2020 Gregory Matte Abstract This study examines issues surrounding apprenticeships in the construction industry in British Columbia (BC) during the period of 1993 to 2004, particularly the state of the social settlement amongst its primary stakeholders, namely the government, unionized and non-unionized employment associations and post- secondary colleges. It provides a conceptual framework to research apprenticeships as a skills ecosystem, and to explain why successive provincial governments were motivated to impose significant legislative changes on the vocational education and training system. The findings not only examine the motivation, but also the resulting outcomes, using the different political ideologies as a basis to explain how contrasting stakeholder perspectives shaped both. Based on a combination of structure and agency, the primary stakeholders operated within the confines of institutional structures, extant logics and the limitations of their own perspectives and objectives. This thesis examines how the relationships between apprenticeships, the labour market and the post-secondary education system are coordinated, governed, influenced and shaped in BC, as well as how these same relationships have evolved, including the impact of such changes on apprenticeship programs as a skills ecosystem. The period of 1993 to 2004 was specifically chosen as it was a period of bold political reforms pertaining to trades training within the province by two ideologically opposed political parties.

  • Agencies and Organizations
    Made In B.C. – Volume VI A History of Postsecondary Education in British Columbia Agencies and Organizations Bob Cowin Douglas College September 2012 Preface Is it really very important to understand how our postsecondary system acquired its current characteristics in order to foster consensus about the best way to move forward? I’m inclined to think it is, but not everyone agrees. In any event, we seem to be busier doing things in postsecondary education than in looking for patterns across those activities or in reflecting as a system on the long-term implications. A symptom of our malaise is the triumph of the public relations agenda. The documents I consult in preparing these historical reports used to be forthright in describing the organizations and, to varying extents, willing to describe some problems and challenges. Not so much anymore. Especially not for documents that are posted on the web for a year or two and then replaced by others with no apparent archiving that the public can access. There are, of course, numerous exceptions, but it seems to be increasingly difficult to find material that is “off message.” The irony is that in a period when accountability, transparency and open government have become buzzwords, I sometimes find it harder to track down recent information than for the bad old days before the information explosion. My tale, though, is not all sorrow and woe. I continue to be amazed at the power of the Internet to bring information to the corner of my desk in suburbia, and at the unexpected little gems that individuals have posted on the web.
