It was extra painful for me having to self-isolate this week preventing me from attending with you at the PNE grounds. Though I must say the efforts of the Association and the Regimental wreath parties at key locations has still allowed for us to feel connected on this day. The remembrance at the 29th Battalion CEF Monument at the PNE was very well done and attended by over 75 BCR soldiers online. Please pass on my kudos to all those involved in putting this together. The Wait for me Daddy wreath laying party was befitting for such a special and dear monument to our Regiment. Finally, the readings of the Cpl Alexander and Wu at Christ Church Cathedral as part of a wreath laying party was streamed live and can be found on youtube at https://www.thecathedral.ca/livestreams/34. These efforts show the whole Regimental Family is able to adapt and carry on in face of the greatest challenges of this generation of soldiers.

  • An Alternative Approach to Prior Learning and Advanced Placement in Post-Secondary Programs for Veterans: the Canadian Experience
    The Colloquium for Information System Security Education (CISSE) Special Edition: Educational Approaches to Transition Former Military Personnel into the Cybersecurity Field Spring 2015 An Alternative Approach to Prior Learning and Advanced Placement in Post-Secondary Programs for Veterans: The Canadian Experience K.J. Wainwright, Amy Fell, Sonia Dhaliwal BC Institute of Technology OVERVIEW In 2006 British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) partnered with Honor House, a group of business leaders, veterans and Canadian forces members supporting wounded soldiers returning from the Afghanistan mission to provide career counseling and resume writing services. It quickly became apparent through BCIT’s work with Afghanistan veterans that there was a significant amount of military training and experience that potentially matched high skill demands in the labor market and therefore learning outcomes at post-secondary institutions. In 2006, Canadian post-secondary institutions offered limited transfer credit for military training. Based on experience acquired through the partnership with Honor House, BCIT established a student research project with the purpose to study the possibility of expanding recognition of military training based on an assumption that the combination of military training and experience could reveal potential credit equivalencies that were not currently articulated. The potential for establishing advanced placement education pathways for soldiers in post-secondary programs posed two challenges. The first was the nature
