Biographical history

The Educational Council was created in 1979 by a Board of Governors by-law. Outlined in the by-law were the terms of reference of the Council. These included the review of 1) educational policies, programs and priorities of the Institute, 2) reports of various committees established by the Council, and 3) the performance and effectiveness of advisory committees, as well as the establishment of a student appeals committee. Represented on the Council were deans, vice-principals, department heads, board-elected provincial representatives, alumni, students, representatives from advisory committees, unions, and associations as well as faculty and technical staff elected at large. Summaries of Council proceedings were published in BCIT Developments. In November 1987 the Educational Council approved Councils in the Schools of Engineering Technologies, Health Sciences, Business, and Trades Training. The Schools Councils were to make recommendations to the Educational Council on matters relating to educational policy, programs and priorities, which potentially affected the Institute as a whole. In November 1987 the responsibilities of the Educational Council were redefined to include an annual review of the Institutes mission statement and educational objectives, the preparation of a report and recommendations on progress in achieving Institute objectives. In March 1995 a new Education Council was established following amendments to the Institute of Technology Act in 1994.
