It contributes to the realisation of Bermuda College’s vision by addressing “the diverse needs of the community through research.” The aim of this publication is to heighten awareness of current trends, to encourage discourse and practice, to challenge thinking, and to widen and strengthen the scope of research in education. It serves local and global audiences in academia by providing peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary articles. 2 VOICES IN EDUCATION Vol. 1, June 2015 Editorial Board Dr Phyllis Curtis-Tweed, Co-Editor Dr Daniel Fider Principal Professor of Leadership The Berkeley Institute Northern Caribbean University Bermuda Jamaica Lynette Woods, Co-Editor Samantha Froud Assistant to the President – Special Projects Chief Administration Officer Bermuda College ACE Limited Bermuda Dr Larita Alford Former Vice President, Academic Affairs Dr Victoria Marsick Bermuda College Professor of Adult & Organisational Learning Director, Adult Learning & Dr Tyrone Blesdoe Leadership Program Founder-CEO Columbia University Student African American Brotherhood New York University of Toledo Ohio Dr Joni Seaton-Charles Department of Finance & Economics Claire Charlemagne Emmett & Miriam McCoy Head of School College of Business Administration Saltus Grammar School Texas State University Bermuda San Marcos Dr Joseph Christopher Dr Dwayne Thompson Former Chief Education Officer Professor of English Ministry of Education Bermuda College Bermuda Bermuda Dr Donna Durham-Pierre Dean of Upper-Level Students and Associate Professor of Microbiology Winston-Salem State University North Carolina 3 VOICES IN EDUCATION Vol. 1, June 2015 Bermuda College Publication Committee Lynette Woods, Chair Evelyn James-Barnett Assistant to the President – Special Projects Communications Director Dr Barrington Brown Ru-Zelda Severin Professor Senior Lecturer Computer Information Systems Music & Education Division of Business, Hospitality, & Division of Liberal Arts Technical Education Annette Gilbert Jennifer Williams Cataloguing and User Services Librarian Faculty Tutor Library Reading Academic Resource Centre Karmeta Hendrickson Assistant Director Information Technology Services Former Committee Members Nikkita Scott Sandra Dill Director Former Employee Counselling & Student Services 4 VOICES IN EDUCATION Vol. 1, June 2015 Minister’s Remarks It is my pleasure to congratulate Bermuda College on the publication of its first academic journal for educators, Voices in Education: A Bermuda College Publication. I commend the college for this valued undertaking, and particularly its keystone theme, “Student Success: A National Focus.” The journal is timely and critical, and provides an appropriate platform for scholarly dialogue for those who can offer perspective and keen insight. Bermuda is neither atypical nor alone in its student success efforts. Educating citizens for the 21st Century is imperative for most countries. Students must be properly prepared to move from primary school to middle school; to senior school; and then on to post-secondary education. An important measure of student success is having the young, and not so young, well prepared to enter the workforce. The Government of Bermuda is pleased to support Bermuda College in making this publication a respected forum for local educators and academic professionals. It is my hope that Voices in Education will quickly become a scholarly focus for those seeking to engage in this important discussion. I offer my thanks and best wishes. R. Wayne Scott, JP, MP Minister of Education 5 VOICES IN EDUCATION Vol. 1, June 2015 President’s Remarks I can think of very few comparable pleasures as President of Bermuda College than to be offered the opportunity to provide a few thoughts on the significance of the launch of this publication during this 40th anniversary of Bermuda College. Voices in Education: A Bermuda College Journal has been more than two years in the making. I heartily commend Ms Lynette Woods and the Bermuda College Publication Committee for both the vision and the fortitude to make this a reality for Bermuda College and for Bermuda. It is fitting that the tagline for the first edition of Voices in Education: Journal of Bermuda College is “Student Success: A National Focus.” This is significant as it aligns with Bermuda College’s mission of Setting Bermuda’s Students on the Paths to Success. All of the articles are original, and they perspicaciously examine the elusive ideal of student success through a kaleidoscope of perspectives. And, as it is an academic journal, one can be confident that the topics have been rigorously researched and defended, and are proven academically sound. Certainly, when we engage in discussions about student success as a national focus, we would, of necessity, need to be as encompassing or inclusive as possible. And this journal wonderfully and solidly supports that perspective. We ought to claim student success for the traditional and non-traditional students, for workforce development students and university transfer students; as well as for those students with special needs. An encompassing conversation about student success cannot simply include the higher education end of the process, but must include the entire education process, as students move from pre-school to primary, from middle to high school and from high school to tertiary education. As such, we cannot have a conversation about student success without including retention as an inherent part of the equation. Undoubtedly, this journal will contribute to an ongoing dialogue among educators

  • Celebrating 39 Years Celebrating 39 Years
    AssociationABICEA of Bermuda International Companies Education Awards ANNUAL LUNCHEON Wednesday, July 20th, 2016 2016 Celebrating 39 years Celebrating 39 years Over 540 Students And Many Success Stories From the earliest days of Bermuda’s emergence as a top international centre, the need for world-class employees was obvious. In 1977, Bermuda’s international companies took steps to create a Bermudian pool of talent to participate in this growing sector. Education was the key, and their effort launched what now ranks as the largest post-secondary scholarship program in Bermuda: the ABIC Education Awards. The Education Awards are sponsored by annual donations from international companies in Bermuda. As the sector has grown, so has the size and scope of the program. It now stands out as a first choice for companies looking to invest in Bermuda’s future. The mission is to enable qualified Bermudians, in financial need, to pursue their undergraduate or graduate educational goals in areas related to international business. The hope is that they return to the Island to help build the international business sector. Selection is based on a combination of the applicant’s financial need and academic ability. The awards are given only to students pursuing higher education at accredited degree-granting colleges and universities. Students in the program have attended universities in Canada, the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, Europe and Australia. The year the awards were established, there were four recipients. Awards are now given to about 15 - 20 students annually. More than 540 students have been provided with two year scholarships – many of them in leadership positions in international business, or in the industries supporting it.
