The event was led by Dr. Jill Biden, who has been a community college professor for 17 years. Among the highlights: • The administration has announced a new partnership called “Skills for America’s Future.” It’s designed to change the way business and labor leaders connect to community colleges. • President Obama has set a goal for America to once again lead the world in producing college graduates by 2020. That includes an additional 5 million community college degrees and certificates in the next 10 years. • The Bill and Melinda Gates foundation are launching the “Completion by Design” program. Investing $35 million over five years, the program hopes In a phrase that has special meaning at Clark College, two of the speakers— to dramatically improve graduation rates at community colleges. -

BC's Faith-Based Postsecondary Institutions
Made In B.C. – Volume II A History of Postsecondary Education in British Columbia B.C.’s Faith-Based Postsecondary Institutions Bob Cowin Douglas College April 2009 The little paper that keeps growing I had a great deal of fun in 2007 using some of my professional development time to assemble a short history of public postsecondary education in British Columbia. My colleagues’ interest in the topic was greater than I had anticipated, encouraging me to write a more comprehensive report than I had planned. Interest was such that I found myself leading a small session in the autumn of 2008 for the BC Council of Post Secondary Library Directors, a group that I enjoyed meeting. A few days after the session, the director from Trinity Western University, Ted Goshulak, sent me a couple of books about TWU. I was pleased to receive them because I already suspected that another faith-based institution, Regent College in Vancouver, was perhaps BC’s most remarkable postsecondary success. Would Trinity Western’s story be equally fascinating? The short answer was yes. Now I was hooked. I wanted to know the stories of the other faith-based institutions, how they developed and where they fit in the province’s current postsecondary landscape. In the ensuing months, I poked around as time permitted on websites, searched library databases and catalogues, spoke with people, and circulated drafts for review. A surprisingly rich set of historical information was available. I have drawn heavily on this documentation, summarizing it to focus on organizations rather than on people in leadership roles. -

General Characteristics of the Camosun Educational Market Number of Institutions In April 2005, all the postsecondary institutions competing in the Victoria education market were identified. Any institution that had a listing in the Victoria area telephone book was considered to have some presence in the Victoria education market and was included in the study. Of the 89 institutions identified in 2005, 44 institutions had previously been identified in the 2001 competitive analysis, 35 new postsecondary institutions were identified, and 10 institutions from the 2001 analysis were no longer operating. In the last four years, the increase in the number of postsecondary training providers has been significant. While the size of each institution and the programming offered by an institution are more important considerations in the competitive landscape, the sheer number of institutions is also a raw measure of the 2005 competitive environment.
