  • Development of a Hospitality Management Program, in the East Kootenay Region Of
    1 Development of a Hospitality Management Program, in the East Kootenay Region of British Columbia (Canada), to Address the Employment Needs of the Region Abstract College of the Rockies (Canada), guided by its strategic initiatives, explored the potential of introducing a two-year Hospitality Management Diploma program in Invermere, British Columbia. After a successful feasibility study, the program was developed and introduced during the Spring semester of 2018. The program content is aligned with the provincial core curriculum for Hospitality Management and developed in collaboration with local Hospitality industry inputs. The distinctiveness of the program lies in its design and structure, focused on regional industry employment needs and includes a 500-hour Co-operative education semester to further enhance students’ employability skills and job-readiness for the Hospitality industry. Key words Industry Employability Partnership Collaboration Education Development 2 Introduction Job-ready graduates as well as filling employment gaps are essential focus areas and desired outcomes for tertiary education institutions. College of the Rockies (COTR), British Columbia (BC), Canada explored the local Hospitality industries’ needs to design an academic program to do just that. The Kootenay Regional Skills Training Plan (2013) indicates the demand for workers to increase from 78 560 in 2012 to 83 240 in 2020, thus predicting a 5.6% increase, as indicated in Figure 1.1 Kootenay Labour Demand and Supply Projections 2012 to 2020. The Kootenay Regional Skills Training Plan (2013) further reveals the shortage of qualified employees in the Tourism and Hospitality industries in the Kootenay region. The region, with an already shortfall of qualified employees, has a projected Tourism and Hospitality employee growth, potentially similar to the 1.6% estimated for the province as well as business development that support the claim of a desired increase of qualified employees.

Executive Summary This research project synopsis presents diverse Indigenous community perspectives regarding the efforts needed to enable systemic change toward reconciliation within a public post-secondary educational institution in the Southern Interior of British Columbia. The main research question for this project was “How does a community college respectfully engage in reconciliation through education with the First Nations and Métis communities in the traditional territories in which it operates?” This research was realized by a team of six Indigenous researchers, representing distinct Indigenous groups within the region. It offers Indigenous perspectives, insights, and recommendations that can help guide post-secondary education toward systemic change. This research project was Indigenous led within an Indigenous research paradigm and done in collaboration with multiple communities throughout the Southern Interior region of British Columbia. Keywords: Indigenous-led research, Indigenous research methodologies, truth and reconciliation, Indigenous education, decolonization, systemic change, public post- secondary education in BC, Southern Interior of BC ii Acknowledgements This research was made possible through funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) of Canada. The important contributions from the Sinixt, Ktunaxa, Syilx, and Métis Elders, Knowledge Keepers, youth, men, and women within this project are essential to restoring important aspects of education that have been largely omitted from the public education system.

    INSPIRING LIFE-CHANGING LEARNING INSTITUTIONAL ACCOUNTABILITY PLAN AND REPORT 2019/20 REPORTING CYCLE July 1, 2020 The Honourable Melanie Mark Minister of Advanced Education, Skills and Training Government of British Columbia Dear Minister, On behalf of the Camosun College community, we are pleased to submit our annual Institutional Accountability Plan and Report (2019/20) and to accept responsibility for its contents. This reporting cycle (April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020) features many great stories of success and accomplishment by our students, faculty and staff, of which we are very proud. The latter portion covered, specifically in March 2020, represents a significant time of uncertainty when Camosun, and the public post-secondary sector, transitioned as the COVID-19 pandemic required from us all creative thinking, new ways of teaching and providing student services and swift action to ensure our continuing ability to provide educational excellence. We are pleased to report that our community of students and employees rose to this challenge with strong completions and the challenges of meeting licensing requirements met. While this report largely focusses on the pre-COVID era, it is important to acknowledge and recognise everyone who worked hard and successfully in March during a period of transition. In particular, we want to express our gratitude to our generous and hardworking faculty and staff who quickly switched to online learning and teaching models, and student support services, and our students, who with patience and understanding, embraced the new educational and service models and were able to complete their courses and terms. The success of this transition was dependent on everyone playing their part.

    Introducing Okanagan College 2010-11 Viewbook www.okanagan.bc.ca introducing okanagan college Hi, my name is Arianne and I’m a second-year Business Administration student at Okanagan College. I’m here to walk you through our viewbook so you can get a student’s perspective of Okanagan College. Before we get going let me tell you a little about my school. Okanagan College is a community college that offers more than 120 degree, diploma and certificate programs in business, university studies, health and social development, engineering technologies, continuing studies and trades. This school has been around since 1963 and it has a long history of providing education in the Okanagan, Similkameen and Shuswap-Revelstoke regions. After I finished high school I decided to go to Okanagan College because I’d heard really good things about the College and wanted to stay close to home. I also watched my older brother complete his business degree at the College and I could really see myself as an Okanagan College student. I’m from Kelowna, but lots of students come from all over to go to Okanagan College. It is a school with a solid reputation, great professors and is a great place to make new friends and have some fun…but not too much fun. Anyways, let’s get started. Quick Facts Okanagan College: • Is the largest community college in BC east of the Lower Mainland with 1000 employees serving more than 19,000 students. • Serves the Shuswap-Revelstoke, North, Central, and South Okanagan-Similkameen regions with major campuses in Salmon Arm, Vernon, Kelowna and Penticton and education centres in Revelstoke, Summerland and Oliver.

COURSE PREREQUISITES: None MISSION STATEMENT: The cohort-based BPA program will bring together both recent college graduates and established creative artists to create a dynamic mix of students and arts backgrounds. Students will gain the skills and knowledge they need to succeed within the performing arts milieu, and a breadth of knowledge that will enable them to think critically: they will examine the historical and cultural context of the performing arts, critique the socio-political and cultural environment of the performing arts industry, and acquire the skills and tools to navigate their way through and build their own careers within this industry. They will also form a production company and develop and mount their own collaborative effort – an original, interdisciplinary performance event. Creating the production will challenge students to explore, master and apply the interdisciplinary performance theory and knowledge they have studied, and enhance their creative and performance abilities. Graduates will demonstrate competency in various aspects of producing and performing interdisciplinary projects: communication, teamwork, leadership, negotiation, critical self-awareness, problem-solving and decision-making. They will possess the core competencies required to succeed in the highly competitive world and business of the professional performing arts. The program’s unique, creative and practical blend of academic and applied studies will prime students for the multifaceted and entrepreneurial aspects of the world they are entering.
