▪ Strength in academic offerings – Curriculum guided by and developed with Industry ▪ Strength in applied research – Opportunities to participate in hands-

• n research

▪ Strength in industry connections – close links to industry through co-op terms and work placements ▪ Benefits in small class sizes and more one-on-one instruction time ▪ Benefits in developing critical thinking and analytical skills, as well as hands-on training in the newest technologies

Strengths & Benefits

Source: CICAN

▪ At a polytechnic, for example, the curriculum reflects labour market demands through the guidance of Program Advisory Committees (PACs). Comprised of employers, practitioners and recent graduates, the committees identify current and future industry trends and shifts in the skills graduates need to meet employer demands. PACs also assess the effectiveness of existing programs and actively participate in the development of new programs. ▪ There is also a difference in who teaches bachelor’s degree courses at

• Polytechnics. Skilled practitioners in their field of study prepare the

students, not lifelong academics. They are experienced industry leaders and subject matter experts. ▪ Nobina Robinson - The Chief Executive Officer of Polytechnics Canada

• The mainstay of our offerings: two and three year diplomas to train

technicians, technologists, mid-level managers and service providers

• This is the level that is neglected in most countries, leading to systemic

unemployment and lack of productivity

• In Canada, we have 7-8 technicians and technologists for every engineer.

In most other countries, it is the opposite. Too heavily focused on the university route

Two and Three year Diploma

• Average of 85% of our graduates obtain

employment within 3 months of graduating

• 95 % of employers satisfied with the graduates
• 20%+ of current college students have university

degrees but cannot find jobs; Take our one-year Post-Graduate Certificates or Diplomas of Specialization and find jobs.
