Advisory Committee - Spring 2012

We just had our bi-annual Advisory Committee Meeting, for those who don't know what the Advisory Committee is let us tell you what they do.

According to the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities' Framework for Programs of Instruction all college and university  programs need Advisory Committees to Advise, Validate and Approve program learning outcomes.

"Ongoing input from industry and the community, through Advisory Committees, is essential for the College to maintain and enhance program standards, and to keep programs relevant to ensure the College graduates are well prepared for employment." AA01

What makes these committees even more special is that they are made up of industry professionals who volunteer their time.

We are very privileged to have great people on our Advisory Committee who's insights are always greatly appreciated.  Thanks again to all the committee members for taking the time to come out today!!
