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. In the last ten years alone, ABIC companies have donated $5 million to the program. The largest corporate contributors to the program each year are designated with “Corporate Named Awards” in the name of the corporation. This creates a direct connection between the company providing the award and the student. Students are encouraged to treat this as a mentoring opportunity – a chance to obtain career guidance and advice from their corporate sponsors. ABIC, with the generous support of its members, will continue to help secure Bermuda’s future by investing in Education. It is one of our most important priorities, and one that we are fully committed to.

  • The Social and Historical Construction of Black Bermudian Identities: Implications for Education
    The Social and Historical Construction of Black Bermudian Identities: Implications for Education By Donna May Outerbridge A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the doctoral degree Graduate Department of Humanities, Social Science and Social Justice Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Donna May Outerbridge (September 2013) Donna May Outerbridge The Social and Historical Construction of Black Bermudian Identities: Implications for Education Doctor of Philosophy Department of Humanities, Social Science and Social Justice Education University of Toronto (2013) Abstract This dissertation looks at the historical and social construction of Black Bermudian identities, and how identities have been shaped in contemporary Bermuda by its education system. I grapple with, and attempt to make sense of the complexities, messiness, ambiguity, disappointments, and painful reality of Black Bermudians’ identity and cultural dynamics. It is necessary to have a total understanding of identity and its connections not only to enslavement and colonization but also the rest of the Caribbean and Africa. The present understanding creates an amputated sense of self. Through the use of three concepts: Afrocentricity, Anti-colonialism and creolization, this dissertation seeks to reunify Bermuda with the rest of the Caribbean and Africa by moving Bermuda from the peripheral of international discourses to the larger and broader discussions on African-diasporic identity. It is through the synthesis of these theories that Black Bermudian identities and how Black Bermudians self-identify are understood through their various forms of resistance to dominant narratives. The dissertation also proposes a re- examination of the role of schooling and education—through teaching curriculum, texts and pedagogical practices—in producing a particular narrative of Black identity and the implications of such knowledge in constructing Blackness in Bermuda.
