Board. The Institute of Adult Studies made its home in the Ewing Building and became the first centre in Canada to offer daytime courses for adults wishing to upgrade to high school graduation. From the inception of the Institute, local interest in a community college grew. On October 9, 1970 Victoria residents voted in favour of establishing a college, and soon plans for “Juan de Fuca” College were underway. The provincial government formally approved the college on October 27, 1970. The roots of the College reach back as far as 1914 when the Young Building was built as Victoria’s first Normal School on part of a seven and a half acre plot belonging to the Hudson’s Bay Company. The school’s enrolment at that time was about 275. During the second world war, the Young Building was converted into a military hospital. It was not until 1946 that the building was returned to its original function. This time, however, it was shared by the Normal School and by Victoria College, which became united in 1955. Today Camosun College celebrates 36 years of excellence in education and service to its community. Now one of the leading community colleges in the province, Camosun serves more than 8,400 students in credit and vocational programs and another 6,500 students in part-time continuing education courses. Camosun is also one of the 12 largest organizations in Victoria with an economic impact of over $170 million per year. In 1971 the college councilors voted on a name change, and “Camosun” (pronounced Cam-O-sun) was chosen, as it was an early name for Victoria. It is originally a Lekwungen (Songhees) name for an area of Victoria where different waters meet and are transformed. In 1967 the Normal School and Victoria College moved to the site of the Gordon Head Campus of the University of Victoria and the Institute of Adult Studies was established by the Greater Victoria School Patricia W es By September of 1971 the final steps toward the realization of a college were taken when Camosun (Lansdowne campus) and the BC Vocational School (Interurban campus) merged to become BC’s nineth community college — Camosun College. t Bay Hwy. ich an Sa Rd .

More than 3,900 students attend classes at Interurban campus, enrolled in trades, technology, business or access programs. Conveniently close to Interurban Road, the Campus Centre is the first point of entry for people seeking information about Camosun programs and services. The Campus Centre houses Information & Registration, the career resource centre, academic advising, counselling, student and alumni employment services, the bookstore, library, fitness centre, Student Society offices and a number of administrative offices, meeting rooms and classrooms. On the courtyard side of the building the attractive clock-tower faces a totem pole carved especially for Camosun by Richard Hunt, as part of the 1994 Commonwealth Games legacy. Central to the campus sits the Helmut Huber Cook Training Centre, where the campus community enjoys nutritious and reasonably-priced meals for breakfast and lunch, prepared by students in the Culinary Arts Foundation program. In the evening, part of the cafeteria is transformed into the Classroom Restaurant, where chefs-intraining provide a delightful gourmet dining experience. Joined together in the middle, these buildings provide a welcoming atmosphere for students, with plant-filled atriums and interesting architecture. On the north end of the campus, the Jack White and John Drysdale buildings house the offices of Continuing Education and Contract Training and most of Camosun’s trades programs. Several entry level, apprenticeship, pre-employment and upgrading programs operate year-round, all providing an effective mix of in-class learning and hands-on shop work. Behind the campus sits the new Vancouver Island Technology Park, providing easy access for Camosun faculty and students entering into partnerships with local industry and research projects. Atop the hill, overlooking the campus, you’ll find the Technology Centre and the Centre for Business and Access. Interurban’s newest facility, the Pacific Sport Institute, a centre for academic and athletic excellence, is scheduled to be constructed on the south side of the campus in 2008. The centre is a unique partnership between Camosun College and PacificSport Victoria and brings together local and national-level sport education, leadership, research and athletic development under one roof.

After two years of restoration and a comprehensive community fund raising campaign, the Young Building now stands as an historic landmark symbolizing community education and service. With its preserved heritage exterior and modernized interior, the Young Building is now prepared to serve the education and training needs of Victoria for another 100 years.

The campus facilities are surrounded by scenic tree-lined grounds. The Alan Batey Library, opened in 1991, is located prominently in the centre of the campus. The Dental Health Education Centre, opened in 1990, stands opposite the Library. In the southeast corner of the campus the Dunlop House serves as a lovely heritage setting for the Hotel and Restaurant Management program’s student-operated restaurant.

We are proud to be Local 75 of the Canadian Federation of Students. Once again the Student Society is actively promoting the interests of, as well as providing support to, you, the student. As students ourselves, we are dedicated to ensuring the post-secondary experience is enjoyable, productive and affordable to everyone at Camosun. The Student Society is made up of 22 students who are committed to giving back to the college community. More than just representing students locally, we are also part of the nationally-based Canadian Federation of Students (CFS), which focuses on the protection of student rights and the advancement of post-secondary education issues. The Society also provides full-time students a health and dental plan that ensures basic medical care is provided. As well as these programs the CCSS funds other important resources such as: the Women’s Center, First Nations Student Association (FNSA), Pride Center, and the Students with Disabilities Lounge as well as the student newspaper, the “Nexus”. The Student Society also provides occasional functions, such as our CAM-O Party, CamFest, guest speakers and movie nights that have been successful in providing entertainment to all of our members. In addition to our local work, the CCSS takes part in larger provincially and nationally-based campaigns. As a result of government’s decisions, inactions and spending-cuts, students today are facing increasing student debt. The CCSS as part of the CFS is fighting this foolishness. On February 7, 2007 students from across Canada rallied in front of legislative lawns to highlight this crisis and force politicians to wake up and take notice. By simply participating in this ongoing campaign, you will be helping in the fight against under-funding of post-secondary education. On behalf of the CCSS, I would like to welcome you to Camosun College and wish you a successful year. We are here for you, so come by to see what great things the CCSS has on the go and find out how you can get involved. Jean-Kyle Bienvenu External Executive The CCSS and our programs can be found all over Camosun College. From the Walk-Safer, UPass and International Student Identity Card programs to the Student Food Bank and the distribution of free student handbooks we make students lives a little bit easier. Child Care Support CCSS Activities The Student Handbook Every year the Student Society publishes a student handbook. The handbook contains information specifically relevant to Camosun College students. The handbook is available to all students at the Student Society offices. Welcome Week Every year the Student Society funds and organizes activities to help students get oriented and enjoy their first week at Camosun. Student Advocacy Student Advocates are proactive by spreading awareness of student rights and responsibilities. In matters of conduct or grades an Advocate can guide you through Camosun’s appeal structure. Advocates can also refer students to other resources while offering support and guidance during those stressful processes. If you require advice or someone to accompany you to a meeting please call 250-370-3590 or stop into your nearest Student Society office. Lansdowne Campus: Toddler, Preschool Interurban Campus: Infant, Toddler, Preschool Phone: 250-370-4880 The CCSS passed a Child Care Levy in a Student Referendum (April 2005).

Our services are free, voluntary and confidential. Our goal is to respond to students’ needs and assist students with any issues preventing them from being successful at college. Students attending Camosun College experience changes and challenges, within themselves, with friends and family, living arrangements, life goals, courses and other areas of their lives. Counselling is a place where students can come to talk over their concerns with a qualified professional counsellor in a safe, private and confidential setting. Counsellors help students identify their issues and work through their problem-solving process in a caring, supportive and respectful manner. With the exception of emergencies, appointments for registered students are preferred and may be booked in person or by phone. Appointments are normally 50 minutes long. In general, counsellors meet with students for a maximum of six sessions. INTERURBAN ph 250-370-3550 • fax 250-370-3750 Career Counselling Through career counselling, students learn how to identify a satisfying career direction or educational program which reflects their interests, abilities, work values and preferences. They learn how to research occupations, how to use labour market information, how to set career goals and how to make informed career and life planning decisions. A number of tools are available to assist students with their career exploration. Counsellors may administer various standardized interest or personality inventories when the counsellor and student mutually agree that such questionnaires would be helpful. A nominal fee for materials will be charged for each inventory administered. Educational Counselling Educational counselling addresses matters, often of an individual nature, which are related to academic progress. These might include college adjustment, time management, learning styles, exam or public-speaking anxiety, educational decision-making, conflicts in the classroom or withdrawal from courses. Personal Counselling Personal counselling enables students to develop the skills necessary for personal change. Together with the counsellor, students address issues which are interfering with their success in college life. Such issues might include self-confidence, anxiety and stress management, health concerns, relationship difficulties, sexual orientation, depression, loneliness, grief and loss, sexual or physical abuse, alcohol and drug problems and procrastination. Students explore effective ways of dealing with life as a college student, learning how to implement successful coping strategies and how to resolve personal difficulties. Referrals are made for students requiring long-term counselling or therapy. Cultural Counselling Cultural Counselling refers to the many issues that arise in learning and living in another culture. One such issue is the culture shock that can occur when you enter a new environment. This can involve learning new skills in communication, living with new lifestyles and coping with leaving your language and cultural home. The process of cultural adjustment is an ongoing process that begins prior to leaving your home and continues after you return. Liaison with other Camosun and community services is available for issues of a cultural nature.

Accident Insurance The Worker’s Compensation Board of BC (WCB) provides coverage to students who are injured during the off-site practicum component of their college programs. The only exception is that WCB coverage is extended to the College’s on-site Dental Clinic practicum students, and to those who are enrolled in an Apprenticeship course. WCB does not provide accident insurance for students, other than Apprenticeship, who are injured while participating in on-site classroom/lab/shop instruction. Students are advised to check with their program chair to ascertain if their practicum is covered by WCB. Because the MSP may only pay part of the medical costs incurred for student accidents which occur during classroom/lab/shop instruction, all students are strongly urged to purchase private accident insurance which will compensate for the limited WCB coverage.

Please note that the awarding of such credit may reduce the number of courses required in each semester of a program to a level that may affect eligibility for financial assistance or for scholarships or bursaries. The College will evaluate these documents and may award transfer credit for equivalent, completed courses for which a student has received a passing grade “P” (50% or higher). Although transfer credit may be granted for passing grades (“D” or “P” grades), a letter grade of “C” minimum (and in some cases a higher grade) will be required for courses to be used as a prerequisite.

Camosun College’s definition of full-time is that the student be enrolled in at least a 60% of a full-time course load for their program of studies. Some external agencies may set different requirements and guidelines (e.g. Canada Customs and Revenue requires students to be enrolled in a minimum of 10 hours per week). For Registration priority some programs at the College (e.g. technologies) require students to carry the full-course load as outlined in this calendar. Returning Student • ensure they withdraw from courses by published deadlines; Registration Process Returning students include those students who have not applied to or attended the college in the 12 months prior to when they re-apply to the college. • ensure the Information & Registration office has proof of prerequisites on file for each course registration; and, Camlink Seat Deferral Applicants who are offered a space in a program but are unable to accept may defer their space one time to a future program start date, per the following guidelines: • For all programs, one seat deferral per program is granted.

Note: For some career programs, full-time students have a priority for registration over part-time students. Career & Vocational Programs Students who have paid their registration deposit will be contacted when it is time to register in their courses. This registration will need to be completed by a deadline date to ensure priority in the registration process. Students auditing courses: • must satisfy course prerequisites.

Certificates, Diplomas, and Degrees Students completing an academic, career or vocational program are encouraged to apply for their certificate, diploma, applied or associate degree by completing the “Application to Graduate/Request for Credential Form” at the Information & Registration office. Allow up to six weeks after the end of exams for the document to be produced and mailed. This form is also available on the college website. The academic requirements for a certificate, diploma, applied or associate degree are listed as part of the program descriptions in this calendar. Credentials will only be issued upon written authority of the student. Parents, other relatives and friends may request a copy of a certificate or diploma only with the student’s written approval. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure completion of the “Application to Graduate/Request for Credential Form”. Original certificates and diplomas are issued free of charge. Note: Credentials will not be issued for a student whose file has been flagged. Multiple Credentials Students who have completed one credential at Camosun College and want to apply some or all of their course work towards an additional credential may use a limited amount of credit from the original credential to the new credential. To acquire a subsequent or higher level credential, a student must complete all the requirements of the credential. In addition, at least 25% credits must be new. The following chart outlines the steps required to acquire a subsequent or higher level credential: First Credential e.g. Certificate Diploma Associate Degree Advanced Diploma Bachelor Degree 32 Certificates, Diplomas, Advanced Diplomas, and Associate Degrees To be awarded a certificate, diploma, advanced diploma or associate degree students must complete all program requirements and satisfy Camosun College’s residency requirement by completing at least 25% of the required program or program credits at Camosun College. The exceptions to this rule are the BC Adult Graduation Diploma in which one course must be completed at Camosun College. Bachelor Degrees To be awarded a Bachelor Degree, students must complete all program requirements and satisfy Camosun College’s residency requirement by completing a minimum of 30 credits (equivalent to one academic year) of the Bachelor Degree program at Camosun College. 1-877-554-7555 The College will convene two college-wide graduation ceremonies each year as follows: • June 2008 (TBA) for all students who will complete their requirements by April 30, 2008. Students must submit their Application to Graduate/Request for Credential by March 3, 2008; and, • October 2008 (TBA) for all students who will complete their requirements by September 15, 2008. Students must submit their Application to Graduate/ Request for Credential by July 2, 2008. Application to Graduate/Request for Credential forms are available on the college website and from the Information & Registration office. Timelines Governing Completion of Programs The standard time limit for completion of a credential is twice the normal length of the program in which the student is enrolled. The College cannot guarantee that courses or programs will be available for students to complete graduation requirements after this time. A student who is unable to complete in twice the normal length of the program, will be required to meet the program requirements at the time of credentialing. The required courses for students taking their program over an extended time would normally be those in effect at the time of original program registration. If program changes result in removal of any of these courses, the Dean of the School may approve the substitution of other appropriate courses such that the student may complete the program. This may require that the student repeat certain courses, complete additional courses, or follow a new or revised program of studies in order to graduate.

Grading Systems The following two grading systems are used at Camosun College: Standard Grading System (GPA) Percentage Grade 90-100 85-89 80-84 77-79 73-76 70-72 65-69 60-64 50-59 A+ A AB+ B BC+ C D 0-49 F Description Minimum Level of Achievement for which credit is granted; a course with a “D” grade cannot be used as a prerequisite. Minimum level has not been achieved. Grade Point Equivalency 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Temporary Grades Temporary grades are assigned for specific circumstances and will convert to a final grade according to the grading scheme being used in the course. Temporary Grade I IP 0 Competency Based Grading System (Non GPA) CW Grade Description COM The student has met the goals, criteria, or competencies established for this course, practicum or field placement. The student has met and exceeded, above and beyond expectation, the goals, criteria, or competencies established for this course, practicum or field placement. The student has not met the goals, criteria or competencies established for this course, practicum or field placement. DST NC This grading system, based on nine (9) possible grades, was implemented for the first time in Sepember 1990. For example: Credit Letter Grade Grade Points 1 2 3 3 3 4 AB+ C+ 7 6 3 4 5 2 3 15 A C 8 2 Incomplete: A temporary grade assigned when the requirements of a course have not yet been completed due to hardship or extenuating circumstances, such as illness or death in the family. Course requirements must be completed and a grade change submitted within six weeks of the “I” grade being assigned or the “I” grade will convert to an “F”. Extensions to this six (6) week period will only be considered for exceptional reasons and will require written approval of the Dean. In Progress: A temporary grade assigned for courses that , due to design, may require further enrolment in the same course. No more than two IP grades will be assigned for the same course. For these courses, a final grade will be assigned to either the third course attempt or at the point of course completion. (The "IP" grade will convert to a final grade of "NC" if an alternative grade is not assigned within the specified time limitation for a specific course. If an "IP" grade is registered for a third consecutive term, an "NC" will be issued.) Compulsory Withdrawal: A temporary grade assigned by a Dean when an instructor, after documenting the prescriptive strategies applied, and consulting with peers, deems that a student is unsafe to self or others and must be removed from the lab, practicum, worksite or field placement. Note: A ‘CW’ grade can only be assigned by a Dean who must immediately notify the Vice President of Education and Student Services in writing. A ‘CW’ grade is appealable through the Student Appeals Policy immediately upon issuance, as it will automatically convert to a final grade of "F" or "NC" at the end of the academic term in which it was assigned.

These Standards of Academic Progress statements can be found in each School’s chapter. For further information on the Camosun College Academic Progress Policy refer to camosun. bc.ca/policies/Education-Academic/. Student Evaluation Procedure Each college instructor will provide each student in his/her class with a course outline which includes the evaluation process during the first meeting with that class. If a final examination will be used as a part of the formal evaluation, it must be specifically identified at this time. Grade Changes There are special circumstances for which grades can be changed (e.g. when there has been a grade appeal or in the case where an “I” grade has been assigned awaiting completion of outstanding requirements). Other than in the case of an “I”, grade changes after initial submission by instructors, require approval of the Dean. “I” grades will be accompanied by a form which describes the outstanding requirements for course completion. The instructor will provide a copy of this form to the student and the school office. Any “I” grade that has not been changed after the six-week period will be converted to an “F” grade. Extensions to this six-week period will only be considered for exceptional reasons and will require written approval of the Dean. Promotion In most cases a “C” or “COM” grade is required to move to the next level of study. However, some programs and/or courses require a higher level of achievement before a student can progress. Where a higher level of achievement is required it will be clearly outlined in the course description section of the Camosun College Credit Calendar. A grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 is normally required to graduate from a Camosun College program. Where a higher GPA is required for graduation it will be published in the Camosun College credit calendar. 34 1-877-554-7555 Grade Notification It is the responsibility of instructors to notify students of their grades. Generally, instructors post grades outside their offices or in the Education School office. Instructors will advise as to the particular location. Grades will be posted using Student Numbers. Students with a Camlink account will be able to check their grades online using Camlink. If students are unable to access their grades via the web, a restriction may have been placed on their student record. See the Student File Restrictions section of this calendar, and contact Student Services for further information. Final Examinations All final exams will occur during the final exam period. Students are expected to write tests and final examinations at the scheduled time and place. Final exam schedules will be posted. Where possible, students will write no more than two final examinations on the same day. Where a student has more than two final exams scheduled on one day, the student is to contact the instructor(s) to discuss alternate arrangements. In emergency circumstances, a student may write a test or final examination before or after the scheduled time if the student would otherwise be unable to complete the program or course. Exceptions, due to emergency circumstances, such as unavoidable employment commitments, health problems, or unavoidable family crises, require the approval of the appropriate instructor. Holidays or scheduled flights are not considered to be emergencies. The student may be required to provide verification of the emergency circumstance. Invigilators will inform students of any rule which may apply to the conduct of a specific examination. This may include, but is not limited to, rules for the following: • the consumption of food or beverages within the final examination room; • late entry to the final examination room thirty minutes after the scheduled commencement of the examination; • students leaving during the first thirty minutes of the examination; LANSDOWNE • the use of calculators, cell phones, terminals or other information processing devices; • the access to washroom facilities during the final examination; • the use of supplementary books, manuals or reference sources; • the use of previously completed course material, studio or shop projects or experiments; and, • the provision of special arrangements for any disabled students. Retention of Records All instructors’ records of all student marks (e.g. marks, books, breakdowns of marks) shall be retained by the instructional area for twelve months after the conclusion of a course. Final examination papers are the property of Camosun College. For the purposes of appeal, all major examination papers or assignments not returned to students must be retained by the instruction area for twelve months after the submission of the final grade. All students will be given the opportunity to review their final examination papers, but the ultimate disposal of both the examinations and completed papers is the sole responsibility of the appropriate department and/or faculty member. All instructors using a common examination must agree if these documents are to be returned to the students. Academic Progress Policy Purpose/Rationale The purpose of this policy is to enhance a learner’s likelihood of success and to encourage a learner to use College resources effectively. This policy will define the College-wide standard for academic progress and will establish principles and protocols to assist students, their instructors, and administrative staff to monitor and intervene when a student is “at risk.” Scope/Limits This policy applies to students registered in Education Council approved courses and programs at Camosun College. This policy—with the exception of the stage four intervention of academic suspension—is under the authority of the Deans and Directors of schools and administrative units (henceforth called “Schools”) that provide educational programs. Appeals related to academic probation, removal and suspension fall under the Student Appeal Policy. ph 250-370-3550 • fax 250-370-3551 INTERURBAN ph 250-370-3550 • fax 250-370-3750 Principles Definitions: The College recognizes the considerable effort on the part of students to establish and meet their educational goals and is committed to creating a supportive learning environment as students make progress toward their educational goals. At Risk: “At risk” students are those who are experiencing academic difficulty and who, without change, will not meet the academic progress standards by the end of the academic term. Formal assessment of students’ academic performance and the assignment of grades are based on the quality of student achievement compared with the standards and requirements established by the College, the School, the program, and the individual courses. Students are ultimately responsible for their learning and progress and are expected to seek help in a timely manner when they are unable to meet the course requirements. The College is committed to supporting student success and to working with students in achieving their educational goals. When an instructor, during the process of ongoing assessment, determines a student to be at academic risk, the instructor will alert the student and discuss improvement strategies. Because students are ultimately responsible for their progress, they should communicate their progress and challenges to the instructor and act on the improvement strategies. Personal Learning Plan (PLP): The process and tools through which Camosun College helps students with academic and personal planning, assisting them to achieve their educational goals. Stages of Academic Intervention All students are expected to meet College standards of academic progress in order to be permitted to continue or to be promoted to the next level of the program. When a student is at risk, the College will offer academic support and, if and when needed, provide intervention strategies. Stage One Intervention: Academic Alert At any time during the academic session, an instructor or a student may identify that the student is “at risk.” The instructor and student will meet to discuss improvement strategies. Whenever possible, College employees will identify where students can obtain extra support. • The Registrar will be notified, and a notation will be placed on the student record indicating the Academic Probation. Stage Three Intervention: Academic Removal Students on Academic Probation who do not achieve a minimum GPA requirement in any subsequent semester or quarter will be removed from their program for a period of twelve months. Prior to registering into another program, the student must complete a new Personal Learning Plan (PLP). College Process: • At the end of each semester or quarter, the Registrar will notify the School of all students who have not achieved a minimum GPA of 2.0 more than once. • The Dean will notify the student, in writing, that he/she has not met the minimum standard for progress for two academic terms and is therefore restricted from reregistering into the program for a period of twelve months. Re-admission is not automatic or guaranteed. The letter will specify any additional requirements related to re-admission to program, including an indication of when the student can reapply, the registration priorities of the program, and, when relevant, program application information. In order to remain in good academic standing, a student must maintain a minimum GPA of 2.0 in each academic term. Some programs may require a higher minimum GPA, specific attendance requirements, or the passing or successful completion of specific courses to continue in the program. These are published in the College Calendar. For those programs graded under the nonGPA Competency Based Grading System the student must demonstrate continued satisfactory progress in order to remain in good academic standing. Stage Two Intervention: Academic Probation All students are assumed to be in good academic standing unless stated otherwise on their academic record. When a student has failed to meet an academic standard, the College will intervene to alert and counsel the student. Ultimately, part of the intervention will involve structured limits which may include probation and in some circumstances removal from the program. Spring and summer sessions, combined, are considered one semester. College Process: • A the end of each semester or quarter, the Registrar will notify the School of all students who have been subject to an Academic Removal penalty and have again not achieved a minimum GPA of 2.0. If a student has failed a course twice, he/she may register for it again only with the permission of the Dean. Due to the nature of self-paced and continuous entry programming, students in these courses will be permitted to register only three times for the same course. Only in exceptional circumstances and at the discretion of the Dean may these limits be waived. (The Dean will receive the records from the Office of the Registrar.) • At the end of each semester or quarter, the Registrar will notify each School of all students who did not achieve the minimum GPA of 2.0. Non-GPA program probation reports will be done at the departmental level. • The Dean will alert the Vice President of Education and Student Services that the student has again not met academic progress standards, and will request that the student be suspended from the College for a minimum two-year period. • The Dean will write to the student indicating the Academic Probation, any required follow-up, and the consequences of not improving his/her academic standing. Information about College services will be included. • The VP of Education and Student Services will review the file and, if he/she supports the decision for Academic Suspension, will make this recommendation to the President. The President will inform the student of the decision in writing. A student who does not meet a minimum GPA of 2.0 for any semester or quarter will be placed on academic probation by the Dean. In non-GPA programs, the decision as to what triggers academic probation will be made at the program and departmental level, bearing in mind that a student in selfpaced courses may register only three times in the same course. Notes: Some programs may require a higher GPA, specific attendance requirements, or a specific level of achievement to continue in the programs. VISIT US ON THE WEB camosun.ca • The Registrar will be notified and a notation will be placed on the student record indicating the Academic Removal. Stage Four Intervention: Academic Suspension If a student does not meet the GPA requirement in a subsequent program, a recommendation will be forwarded to the President to suspend the student from the College for a minimum of two years. College Process: • SEND EMAIL camosun..ca/info 35 Withdrawal Policy Camosun College recognizes that students may need to withdraw from course(s). Students wishing to officially withdraw from course(s) will be required to do so by established deadlines. Official withdrawal deadlines for semester, term and quarter courses are published in the Camosun College Calendar. For all other courses, official withdrawal deadlines are set at 66% and specific dates are available from Student Services. Students must initiate an official withdrawal by completing a Registration Change form. In order to be fully informed of the implications of a course withdrawal, students enrolled in career programs are required to obtain the signature of their program Chair/Leader prior to withdrawal. International students who wish to withdraw are required to obtain a signature from the Director of Camosun College International or designate. Students receiving financial assistance are recommended to speak to a Financial Aid Advisor before withdrawing. Academic Penalties Students who do not withdraw prior to official published deadlines and fail to successfully complete the course will be assigned an “F” grade. Students who have extenuating medical or compassionate circumstances and wish to withdraw after the deadline must make a request for special consideration to the School Dean, or in the case of international students, to the Director of Camosun College International. The Dean or Director will require documentation to support this request. Refunds Normally refunds will not be provided after the published fee deadline as noted in the refund policy. Students with medical or compassionate reasons may apply to Student Services for special consideration. Student Services will require documentation to support a request. Policy Limitations Official withdrawal deadlines do not normally apply to self-paced programs. 36 1-877-554-7555 Prior Learning Assessment Policy (PLA) Purpose/Rationale The purpose of this policy is to provide guidelines to determine the equivalencies to the learning that students have acquired from life or work experiences to formal college credits. Scope This policy applies to all current or prospective Camosun College students requesting formal assessment of learning acquired from life or work experiences for college level credit. Principles Camosun College recognizes that learning which some students acquire from their life and work experiences may be equivalent to college level learning. Opportunities to acquire credit in a module, course or program through assessment of learning gained from life or work experiences may be offered to students. Formal credit for learning that has been assessed as equivalent to Camosun College courses and programs is granted as follows: • it is considered Camosun College resident credit; and, • it is given a grade which is recorded on College transcripts as a regular course without being identified as PLA credit. Grading is as per the College’s grading system which is published in the College calendar. If the grading is by letter grade, it is calculated into the College GPA. A successful assessment of prior learning will apply only to the designated module or course and will not constitute completion of any prerequisites for other modules, courses or programs. PLA processes are developed and implemented by the department or discipline in which the credit is sought. PLA processes will include assessment of performance on the full range of theoretical and practical learning outcomes of a module or course. Students will request or be requested to document their learning of specific knowledge, skills and values related to the course or program learning outcomes, objectives or competencies for which credit is requested. Documentation must support learning statements and may include and not be restricted to the following: LANSDOWNE ph 250-370-3550 • fax 250-370-3551 • personal profiles and portfolios; • non-credit certificates/diplomas; • work products and artifacts; • course challenges (written, oral, performance examinations [e.g. laboratory, clinical, work-site], product assessment, standardized exams); • performance evaluations (e.g. roleplays; live, video or audio presentations; lab demonstrations; simulations; worksite demonstrations); and • documented learning from life and work experiences and accomplishments. Definitions Base Funded Courses: provincially subsidized programming that accommodates the general needs of the public. Non-base Funded Courses: programming that is not provincially subsidized; the program fees are determined by the delivery costs of the program. Official Course Withdrawal: withdrawal from a course after the Fee Deadline and before 66% of the course has been completed, as per the Course Withdrawal Policy. Resident Credit: resident credit is equivalent to having earned the credit at Camosun College for graduation purposes. Academic Term: a period equal to the normal duration of the course. Procedures Application Having decided to apply for prior learning assessment of a module or course, students must: • Begin the PLA application process before or up to and including the first week of the commencement of the regular (nonPLA) course. Exceptions may be made at the discretion of the chair or program leader of the department. • Consult with the Information and Registration Office to determine whether they meet: • requirements; and • the pre-requisite requirements. • Obtain a Prior Learning Assessment Application Form from the Information & Registration Office. • Contact the Department offering the course for which they wish to have a prior learning assessment and schedule an advisory session with the chair or program leader to discuss suitability. Bring the Prior Learning Assessment Application Form to the session. INTERURBAN ph 250-370-3550 • fax 250-370-3750 If a PLA is determined to be suitable, students must: Student Conduct Policy • Obtain the departmental signature approving the PLA module or course and the start and end dates. Start and end dates for the PLA course are mutually agreed upon by the faculty member and the student. Purpose/Rationale • Submit the signed Prior Learning Assessment Application Form to the Information & Registration Office and register and pay fees. Fees Base-funded PLA courses: Tuition fees are assessed at 50% of the current College approved rate. Applicable levy fees are assessed by the Information and Registration Office. Non base-funded PLA courses: Tuition fees are established by the department offering the program or course. PLA fees are non-refundable. Special consideration of a refund may be given in extenuating medical or compassionate circumstances as per the Course Withdrawal Policy. Withdrawal Once registered in a PLA module or course, students may withdraw according to guidelines established in the Course Withdrawal Policy; however, course withdrawal is not permitted for PLA courses of one week’s duration or less. Grading Upon completion of a PLA module or course: • Students are entitled to an interview with a faculty member to review their course performance; • A final grade will be awarded, submitted to the Records Department by the faculty member, and entered on the student’s transcript regardless of the grade received. Repeating a Course Any student who has previously taken a regular (non-PLA) module or course or module, whether successful or unsuccessful, cannot be assessed for prior learning for that same course until at least one full academic term has elapsed (see definition). Once this period has elapsed, the student must be able to demonstrate to the chair or program leader additional learning acquired which supports his/her PLA application. Student Appeals Students who wish to appeal decisions regarding final grades must refer to the Student Appeal Policy The purpose of this policy is to provide clear expectations of appropriate academic and nonacademic student conduct and to establish processes for resolution of conduct issues or the imposition of sanctions for inappropriate conduct. Scope/Limits This policy covers all students enrolled in a College course or program, on or off campus, as well as prospective students, while engaged in college related activities. This policy by legislation, does not apply to appeals of suspensions from the College. Suspensions are imposed by the President and may be appealed to the Board of Governors. Forfeiture of College Award or Credential is imposed by the Vice President of Education and Student Services and may be appealed to the President. Non-final grades may not be considered for a final stage of appeal. (See Student Appeal Policy). Imposed discipline will remain in place while an appeal is being considered. Conduct related to harassment is covered under the Human Rights Policy. Principles The College recognizes the considerable effort on the part of students to establish and meet their educational goals. To enhance students’ opportunity for success in meeting their educational goals, the College expects members of the College community to act toward each other in a manner that contributes to a positive, supportive and safe learning environment.

To facilitate learning, wherever possible, staff and faculty will identify where students can obtain extra support that is available through the College. To enhance the learning environment, the College expects all students to act in an honest and appropriate manner. The College will not tolerate inappropriate student conduct such as academic dishonesty, or disruptive, threatening or dangerous conduct. (See Examples of Inappropriate Conduct below.) The College will take whatever action is necessary to intervene when inappropriate student conduct occurs and will impose disciplinary consequences that reflect the severity and nature of the inappropriate conduct. The College is committed to the provision of a fair and timely appeal process through which student concerns regarding final grades and discipline can be addressed. Students will have access to a multistage process within their Schools for appealing a decision regarding a final grade or imposed discipline. A final stage of appeal (a formal hearing) may be provided if, in the assessment of the Vice President, Education and Student Services, sufficient grounds for an appeal have been demonstrated.

Student Appeals Policy Purpose/Rationale The purpose of this policy is to provide an appeal process for students who have reason to believe they have been graded unfairly or treated unjustly in relation to discipline by Camosun College (“the College”). Scope/Limits This policy applies to all students enrolled in College Courses or programs and applies to the appeal of Final Grades including compulsory withdrawals from courses and disciplinary actions taken by the College. Those wishing to appeal a decision of suspension made by the President must contact the Office of the Board of Governors, as defined in the College and Institute Act. Forfeit of College Award or Credential are imposed by the Vice President of Education and Student Services and may be appealed to the President. A student can withdraw his or her appeal at any stage of the appeal process. If the student withdraws the appeal the matter will be considered closed and no further appeal will be allowed with respect to the same matter. Non-final grades may not be considered for a final stage of appeal. Principles The College recognizes the right and responsibility of its faculty and staff to assess student performance and impose discipline in appropriate circumstances. The College also recognizes the right of students to be assessed in a manner that is fair, just and reasonable and to have sanctions imposed in proportion to the nature and seriousness of their conduct. The College is committed to the provision of a fair and timely appeal process through which student concerns regarding Final Grades and imposed discipline can be addressed. • SEND EMAIL camosun..ca/info 39 Students will have access to a multistage process within their Schools for appealing a decision regarding a Final Grade or imposed discipline. A final stage of appeal (a formal hearing beyond the School) may be provided if, in the assessment of the Vice President, Education & Student Services, sufficient grounds for an appeal have been demonstrated. must commence within five (5) working days of the written decision of the chair and conclude within five (5) of being initiated. The Dean’s decision will be communicated to the student in writing and a copy of the decision will be provided to the Vice President of Education and Student Services. Final Appeal Stage Final decisions with respect to Final Grade appeals will normally be made at the School level to ensure that individuals knowledgeable in the field assess the matter. If the student is not satisfied with the decision of the Dean, the student may apply to the Vice President of Education and Student Services to have a panel convened to hear a final appeal (“Panel”). Forfeitures of College Award or Credential will be decided by the Vice President of Education and Student Services and may be appealed to the President within the time limit noted paragraph number three (3) below. The student shall submit a completed Request for Final Stage Appeal form and all supporting documentation to the Office of the Vice President Education and Student Services within ten (10) working days of receiving the Dean’s written decision.

The student Request for Final Stage Appeal form is available through the Student Services Department, from all School administration offices, and online. First Appeal Stage The Vice President of Education and Student Services will evaluate the Request for Final Stage Appeal form and supporting documentation and will determine if there are sufficient grounds for an appeal. The Vice President of Education and Student Services may seek further information and/ or clarification from any person involved in the appeal. The appeal process for a Final Grade begins with a student initiated discussion with the instructor. The appeal process in the case of discipline begins with a student-initiated discussion with the decision-maker (see definition). These discussions must be initiated by the student within ten (10) working days of the official posting of the Grade or imposition of discipline. If the student is unable to reach the instructor or decision-maker, assistance should be sought through the School office. The student and the instructor or decisionmaker should discuss fully the basis on which the student feels unjustly treated and ways in which his or her concerns may be addressed. These decisions must be concluded within five working days of being initiated. The decision of the instructor or decision-maker must be made in writing and copied to the Chair. The grounds for a final stage appeal related to Final Grades are: • direct that the matter be remitted for an independent academic reassessment. If a reassessment is deemed appropriate, the Vice President of Education and Student Services shall select a qualified new assessor or assessors who may be external to the College. Steps will be taken to ensure the impartiality of the assessor(s) and, where possible, to ensure the anonymity of the student. The assessor(s) may raise, maintain or lower the students’ Grade as appropriate. The decision of the assessor(s) is final and binding. The Student Appeal Panel If there are grounds for an appeal the Vice President of Education and Student Services will communicate to the student the details related to process, timing and location of the Panel hearing.

Website: camosun.bc.ca/coop Co-operative education enables students to connect their classroom studies to the real world by gaining work experience related to their program area. As the name implies, Co-op is an educational process, anchored in a co-operative relationship among the student, the employer and the College. Co-op students function as employees of the co-operating employer organization, and are normally paid at market rates. At the same time, they are also enrolled College students, and work with Camosun instructors and staff to maximize the learning value of their field experience. Students pay tuition and receive college credit for the work term, and are required to submit assignments demonstrating their achievement of academic, professional, and personal learning objectives. Lansdowne Campus: F 128 Interurban Campus: CC 251 Phone: 250-370-4410 Fax: 250-370-4110 Director: Gloria Darroch Assistant to the Director: Alvina Snell The Co-operative Education & Student Employment Department The Co-op department co-ordinates both the educational and the administrative aspects of the co-operative work experience process. Prior to the field experience, Co-op staff deliver the COOP 100 pre-employment seminar, and help students secure work placements with industry, government and other employers. They actively promote the Co-op model to the employer community, and ensure the visibility of Camosun programs and students. Student developed positions may be eligible for work term credit and students are encouraged to self develop work term positions. Consult with Employment Facilitators or Co-op and Internship Co-ordinators for guidance on the development of such positions. The Co-op model has proven highly effective for more than 100 years in North America’s leading universities and colleges. Studies show that Co-op students enjoy higher academic achievement and motivation, and graduate with higher employment rates and earnings. Students value Co-op as a great opportunity to ‘earn and learn’, to see practical applications of their studies, and to develop valuable work experience and employer references. Employers value Co-op as a source of eager and well-prepared talent, and often use the Co-op process as a means of recruiting permanent employees. Camosun has offered Co-operative Education since 1987, and places more Coop and internship students than any other community college in western Canada. Co-operative Education and Internship Designations Students may earn either the “Co-operative Education” or the “Internship” designation on their graduating credential, depending on their program of study and the details of their work experience. The “Cooperative Education” designation requires completion of at least two work terms (three in the proposed, subject to DQAB approval, Bachelor Degrees in Business Administration) of progressively greater challenge, followed by a final academic term. The "Internship" designation requires completion of one work term, and may fall at the end of the student’s program. The minimum work term length is 250 hours for the Internship designation, and either 270 (quarter system) or 360 (semester system) hours for the Co-op designation. VISIT US ON THE WEB camosun.ca For complete details on requirements for the Co-op and Internship designations, see the Co-operative Education and Student Employment office. Programs with Co-operative Education/Internship Options New Co-op and Internship options are being created. Check with your program or the Co-op office for current information on options and designations. Participation in Co-operative Education/ Internships Orientation to familiarize interested students with Co-op/Internships will be held at the beginning of the fall and spring sessions. Orientation sessions for Co-op/Internships are advertised around the campuses. Typically, a student will attend an orientation followed by an in-depth information session to explain specific program process and expectations. (Note: these orientations are not the same as COOP 100). Admission Requirements Submission of a signed student application form is a student’s commitment to comply with the procedures and requirements of the Co-op program as outlined in the calendar and the Co-op Student Handbook. To register in a work term students must: • be registered in a Camosun program with an approved Co-op or Internship option; • have completed a specified portion (normally at least one semester) of the program; • have a minimum GPA of 3.0 (“C+”); and, • have successfully completed COOP 100, a work-term preparation course. Additional requirements may apply in some programs. Students who begin a work term but do not successfully complete it, whether due to academic or employment grounds, may be excluded from registration in subsequent work terms. Workplace Education Preparation Seminar (COOP 100) In order to prepare for workplace learning, students first complete the mandatory prerequisite, Workplace Education Preparation (COOP 100) seminar. This seminar is offered by Employment Facilitators from the Co-operative Education and Student Employment department. • SEND EMAIL camosun..ca/info 55 This seminar is offered at various times throughout the year. Students should plan their personal learning plan carefully to ensure they can register and complete the COOP 100 workplace seminar at least one semester/quarter before they intend to commence their first work term. COOP 100 is comprised of several modules designed to provide the student with a range of skills required for obtaining a career-related job. The seminar provides training in core competencies needed for outstanding resume writing and interview skills. COOP 100 ensures students have advanced job-finding, employability, and workplace safety skills. Specialized modules will also provide students with specifics on the employment industry relating to their program of study. In the final module, students are introduced to the Co-op Field Instructor, a member of the Faculty who is responsible for evaluation. Students will be guided on the work term academic requirements and assignments required for successful completion of the work term. Faculty and Co-operative Education and Student Employment staff work together to support and assist students through their work term. • the credit from the originating institution was granted for a work term in the same discipline as the Camosun College program into which the student is transferring. Acceptance into a Co-op option at another institution does not guarantee eligibility for co-operative work experience in a Camosun program. Students seeking to transfer work term credit from another institution must apply in writing to the Director of Co-operative Education & Student Employment. International Students International students may participate in Co-op/Internship programs unless excluded by Canadian Immigration Regulations relating to employment. The full international fee structure will apply to international students on Co-op. Co-op/Internship Work Term Grades To graduate with a Co-operative Education or Internship designation, students must satisfactorily complete the minimum number of work terms and maintain the academic standing required by the program. Work placement grades appear on the students' official transcript as "COM" (complete), "NC" (not complete), or "DST" (complete with distinction). Continuation in Co-op will normally require that students achieve "COM" or "DST" work term grades. In programs where co-operative work experience is optional, the academic credit for the work term is over and above the mandatory credit for the program. Work term grades are not taken into account in calculating GPA. Co-op Work Term Transfers Co-operative education work terms completed at other BC post-secondary institutions are eligible for transfer credit where: • the other institution is a member of the BC Accreditation Council on Co-operative Education; • credit for the work term is recorded on the student transcript from the originating institution; • the student is accepted into a Camosun College program with a Co-operative Education option; and, 56 1-877-554-7555 LANSDOWNE ph 250-370-3550 • fax 250-370-3551 INTERURBAN ph 250-370-3550 • fax 250-370-3750 Distributed Education Distributed and Distance Education Opportunities Camosun students can choose from many courses and programs whose faculty use the Internet, streamed audio and other communications technologies along with print materials to create a dynamic and interactive learning environment.

These courses are designed to meet the admission requirements of post-secondary programs. Administrative Officer: Signy Thorleifson School Statement Standards of Academic Progress The School of Arts and Science is dedicated to delivering quality programs and instruction. The School offers a wide range of courses and programs in the areas of University Transfer, Career & Technical and some College Preparatory. The School of Arts and Science strongly supports student success and endeavors to help students progress toward their educational goals. Its faculty and staff are committed to providing quality education in a learning-centered manner. We will monitor course prerequisites and student progress and endeavor to place students in courses where they can succeed. When progress is unsatisfactory, appropriate interventions will occur. Our students benefit from small classes and flexible full and part-time study options, including the possibility of taking some distance courses. Dedicated and experienced faculty members encourage academic and personal growth. Several career programs are an integral part of the School of Arts and Science. Applications of technology are emphasized throughout the Applied Communication, Environmental Technology, and Applied Chemistry and Biotechnology programs. These programs provide excellent training for direct employment in business, industry and government or for further studies, as well as allowing students to obtain work experience as part of their program. Graduates of programs in Visual Arts, Criminal Justice and Music have the knowledge and training to enter direct employment or to continue further studies. Program Information Sessions The School of Arts and Science offers free information sessions that provide information on programs offered by the School. Call 250-370-3910 for schedule information. Schedules are also available on the College website. Awards and Scholarships There are a number of awards and scholarships made available annually to the students in the School of Arts and Science. The deadline to apply (for most awards) is May 15. Application forms, criteria and selection process information are available from the Arts and Science office (F104, Lansdowne Campus) and on the College website. Satisfactory progress requires that a student maintain a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 2.0 ("C"). A student whose performance is unsatisfactory will be placed on academic probation. A student in this situation must consult with an Academic Advisor. A student who is on academic probation and who fails to obtain a sessional GPA of at least 2.0 ("C") will be required to withdraw from the School for one year. A student will be denied registration in an Arts & Science credit course for at least one year after twice receiving an "F" grade in that course.

Students complete 20 courses and obtain an Associate of Arts or an Associate of Science Degree. With an appropriate level of specialization the degree will indicate a discipline of concentration. Students who obtain an Associate Degree are individuals who have successfully completed a well-rounded two-year program of studies and who are ready to meet new challenges in employment or further education. Holders of an Associate Degree have demonstrated both the commitment and competence needed for success in post-secondary education and in the workforce. Graduates will be able to apply for transfer to the third year of a general or disciplinespecific program at a receiving university in British Columbia. At Simon Fraser University the minimum admission average for Associate Degree students is established each semester at a level of 0.25 GPA points less than that required for regular transfer students. The University of Northern British Columbia grants priority admission to students with an Associate Degree, and several British Columbia universities grant transfer credit for all courses taken to complete an Associate Degree. Surveys show that AD graduates have greater success at university than other transfer students. Students enrolled in the Associate Degree program will have high priority when registering for courses at Camosun. Every effort is made to timetable courses so as to meet the program needs of these students. Students who want to take academic courses on a part-time basis are admitted as University Transfer* students. Program Credential Requirements Social Science Courses The course requirements for the Associate Degree program credential are mandated by the provincial government. The following courses are defined as Social Science courses at Camosun College: ANTH all UT courses A minimum of 20 University Transfer courses must be completed with a minimum overall average of “C” (cumulative GPA of 2.0), and 25% of these courses must be completed at Camosun College.

This includes status and non-status Indians, Métis, Inuit and Native Americans living in Canada. It is not mandatory for students to indicate their First Nations ancestry. The Diploma in Business Administration - Chinook Option program is a threeyear program in business foundations and fundamentals that will allow students of Aboriginal ancestry to gain the skills required for a career in business.

It is equivalent to the two year diploma in general business, stretched over three years to accommodate additional Chinook courses. This program is offered by the following Chinook partner colleges: Camosun College, Capilano College, College of New Caledonia, Langara College, Northwest Community College. The first year is designed to prepare the student for business studies, and includes courses in math, computer training and communication skills development.

A variety of clinics and agencies become the “living laboratories” where supervised practice encourages learners to develop the values and competencies required for health and human service positions. The faculty, staff and administration in the School of Health and Human Services are committed to developing environments which foster learner success. Within these environments, learners will make informed choices about program content, expectations, linkages to other institutions and career opportunities. Every program within the School has specific requirements concerning attendance and performance standards. These requirements will be described in a student handbook/ course outline which is available to students in the first week of the semester. The School of Health and Human Services monitors course and program admission requirements and prerequisites to ensure that entry requirements are realistic and supportive of successful student outcomes. During the program, instructors are readily available to consult with students directly regarding the educational requirements of the course and/or program. Ultimately, the student is responsible for his/her learning. The Camosun College Academic Progress Policy applies to all students.

The CAEN program, after four years, prepares graduates to write the Canadian Registered Nurse Examination and for subsequent licensure as Registered Nurses with the College of Registered Nurses of British Columbia (CRNBC). At the completion of their education, graduates will be prepared to meet the professional practice requirements, at the entry level, as identified by the College of Registered Nurses in BC (CRNBC) for nursing education programs in British Columbia. Students will also meet the Canadian Registered Nurse Examination (CRNE) competencies. FOR CAMOSUN COLLEGE COURSE ADMISSION AND PREREQUISITE EQUIVALENTS, SEE PAGE 154 Students entering the program at Camosun College continue directly (after 2 years, 4 months), to the University of Victoria for completion of a Baccalaureate of Science in Nursing, or may transfer to another partner site if space allows. Through engagement in teaching and learning, critical thinking, and critical reflection, the CAEN program provides baccalaureate academic education for nurses. Registered Nurses are able to seek employment in a variety of work settings: acute care hospitals, long-term care facilities, clinics and community health agencies. Following additional experience and/or education, RNs may qualify to work in specialized areas. The purpose of the program is to educate nurses to contribute to the enhancement of health for all Canadians and others in the global community. The program fosters critically reflective, independent, and motivated learners and practitioners with an inquiry approach to lifelong learning in their practice. Within this program, learners are prepared to work with individuals, families, groups, and communities in a variety of settings. The program assists students to develop knowledge, competencies and understanding of their own and others’ (individuals, groups, communities, populations) diverse experiences of health and healing. By being cognizant of nurses’ professional roles and the evolving health care system, students learn to work as partners with clients and other health care providers. Through their understanding of and participation in the evolving health care system, graduates will be active participants and leaders in influencing and contributing to the promotion of health. The Nursing program provides graduate nurses with the theory and skills needed to meet the changing health care needs of our society. Emphasis will be placed upon health assessment of individuals, families, 130 1-877-554-7555 communities and populations across the lifespan, and situated in practical experiences as the foundation of nursing theory. Students will be directly involved with clients in local hospitals and community agencies. This will include some evening and weekend hours. The Camosun College Nursing department is committed to open, transparent processes of evaluation. This means that students are encouraged to be proactive in approaching their instructors about past progress and challenges as each new course starts. Faculty work as a team to maximize learning opportunities and enhance the quality of instruction. Evaluative feedback about current and past student progress is shared by course instructors with other faculty in the Nursing department as needed in order to promote student success. Students who enrol in this program will receive a detailed Nursing Department Handbook which provides further information regarding the guidelines and procedures affecting the program. Assessment of English writing and comprehension, and mathematics skills, are recommended and available to students prior to beginning the program.

Program information session schedules are also posted on the College website. Standards of Academic Progress The School of Trades and Technology fosters the environment, which enables students to actively participate in learning to meet their career goals. Successful outcomes are in part, a result of informed choices made by students about the program content, expectation, laddering and transferability within the College and to other institutions and also career opportunities. The School, in conjunction with the College’s Student Support services, is responsible for providing advising, career counselling and program orientations in a timely manner. The School of Trades and Technology monitors the performance of all registered students. Working within the principles and guidelines of Camosun College, unless otherwise specified by the department, after receiving an unsatisfactory grade, the student is permitted to repeat the course only once. The Camosun College Academic Progress Policy applies to all students. For information on the Academic Progress Policy, please refer to camosun.bc.ca/ policies/Education-Academic/.

Applicants who do not have the necessary admission requirements will need to write assessment or competency tests. The Worker’s Compensation Board (WCB) limits its coverage to students who are injured during the practicum component of their college programs only. WCB will no longer provide accident insurance for students who are injured while participating in classroom/lab/shop instruction. Students are advised to check with their program Chair to ascertain if their practicum is covered by WCB. The only exception will be apprentices who will still be fully covered by WCB while participating in classroom/ lab/shop instruction. Because MSP may only pay part of the medical costs incurred for student accidents which occur during classroom/lab/shop instruction, Camosun College has purchased, as part of every student’s tuition fees, private accident insurance which will compensate for the lack of WCB coverage. CSA approved safety footwear must be worn in most program shops. The exception to this rule is Electrical, Cook Training, Nautical and Horticulture (depending on the activity).

Potential apprentices in some trades may be required to write an entrance examination. Individual employers may also have their own requirements in terms of education. A very common route that is used to obtain an apprenticeship within a specific trade has a person taking an entry-level (Foundation) trades training program at a College. This program will give the individual the skills and knowledge required to begin work in an industry at an entry-level position. This employment could lead to an apprenticeship with all its advantages including earning wages while learning a trade. Although Foundation Training may not be compulsory, joint training committees and many employers recognize it as a prerequisite to employment and/or apprenticeship. See Industry Training Authority’s website for application forms and additional information at itabc.ca. For most trades, the apprentice must complete up to four years of training. Each year consists of an average of 1800 hours of service including the time spent in technical training classes. Formal class time is four to ten weeks in each year, depending on the chosen trade. This training is usually done in a technical training school such as Camosun College. When all the conditions of the apprenticeship agreement have been fulfilled, apprentices are issued a “Certificate of Apprenticeship” by the Industry Training Authority. In addition to the Industrial Trades Authority’s (ITA) certification, students will be eligible to receive a Certificate from Camosun College to recognize the completion of the final level of technical (classroom) training in a specific trade discipline. Students must complete their final level of training with Camosun College to receive the certificate. The Certificate will recognize skills in communication, document interpretation, critical-thinking, problem-solving, numeracy, information retrieval & evaluation, group processes, safe work practices, tool use, etc. Apprentices may be required to write the BC Certificate of Qualification exam or the Inter-Provincial Examination (Red Seal) before being issued their Certificate of Qualification. *Note: To obtain a Trade Work Identification number (TWID)/Registration number or information on challenging a particular level please contact the Industry Training Centre at 1-866-660-6011.
