It’s a great equalizer. The Ministry’s work consists of four pillars: reconciliation with Indigenous peoples, post-secondary education, trades and apprenticeship training, and the Workforce Development Agreement.  \nWe are delivering on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Calls to Action and adopting the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples – actions include ensuring Indigenous governance on boards of governors for all 25 public post-secondary institutions, invested nearly $20 million for skills training in Indigenous communities; and together with our Indigenous partners, we’re reviewing Indigenous skills training programs to meet the future needs of Indigenous learners and communities.  \nWe’re making post-secondary education more affordable and not leaving anyone behind. That’s why we’re investing $24 million annually for tuition-free Adult Basic Education and English Language Learning programs; $450 million to help public post-secondary institutions build affordable student housing; committed $7.4 million over the next three years for an additional 620 early childhood educator graduates at public post-secondary institutions throughout B.C. ; and in 2018 we continued to work to eliminate interest on B.C. government student loans. Effective February 2019, B.C. student loans stopped accumulating interest, saving graduates approximately $22 million in interest payments annually.  \nWe’re enhancing trades training and increasing co-op and work-integrated learning opportunities. In 2018 we opened seven new trades training facilities in regions throughout the province. We provided nearly $1.9 million for post-secondary co-op and work-integrated programs, and as part ofthe continued expansion of 2,900 new tech-related spaces throughout B.C. we require all new tech degrees to have a co-op or other work-integrated learning component. The Industry Training Authority (ITA) was also mandated to work with government to help improve outcomes for apprentices, including supporting the implementation of effective apprentice ratios on public infrastructure projects and increasing apprenticeship completion in underrepresented trades.  \nWe are also making sure our economy works for everyone by delivering $67 million in new programming to support workers, communities and employers under the new federal/provincial Workforce Development Agreement. These programs will provide workers skills upgrading and create opportunities for vulnerable and under-represented groups to get the skills training and employment supports needed for good-paying jobs.  \nI'm proud of all that we have accomplished together in the post-secondary education and skills training ecosystem. Together, we are paddling in the same direction to invest in people, reduce barriers, and create opportunities that lead to prosperity for all British Columbians.  \nThe Ministry of Advanced Education, Skills and Training 2018/19 Annual Service Plan Report compares the Ministry’s actual results to the expected results identified in the 2018/19 – 2020/21 Service Plan created in February 2018. I am accountable for those results as reported.  \nHonourable Melanie Mark  \nHli Haykwhl Ẃii Xsgaak  \nMinister of Advanced Education, Skills and Training June 27, 2019  \nTable of Cont","cbCaibVOCaLUReLn","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibVOCaLUReLn","pdf",314545,22,"English","# Minister’s Message and Accountability Statement\n## Purpose of the Annual Service Plan Report\n## Purpose of the Ministry\n## Strategic Direction\n## Operating Environment\n## Report on Performance\n## Goals, Objectives, Measures and Targets\n## Financial Report\n## Discussion of Results\n## Resource Summary\n## Income Statement for Universities and Colleges\n## Capital Expenditures\n## Significant IT Projects\n## Appendix A: Crowns, Agencies, Boards and Commissions","[{\"question\":\"What four pillars does the Ministry focus on in 2018/19?\",\"answer\":\"The report states the Ministry’s work consists of four pillars: reconciliation with Indigenous peoples, post-secondary education, trades and apprenticeship training, and the Workforce Development Agreement.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the report describe efforts to make post-secondary education more affordable?\",\"answer\":\"It highlights investments for tuition-free Adult Basic Education and English Language Learning programs, funding to help public post-secondary institutions build affordable student housing, and actions to eliminate interest on B.C. government student loans.\"},{\"question\":\"What initiatives are included to strengthen trades training and work-integrated learning?\",\"answer\":\"The report describes opening new trades training facilities, providing funding for post-secondary co-op and work-integrated programs, requiring new tech degrees to include co-op or work-integrated learning, and supporting apprentice outcomes through effective apprentice ratios and improved completion in underrepresented trades.\"}]","2018/19 Annual Service Plan Report - Ministry of Advanced Education, Skills and Training | PDF",1792054885,55]
