YOU DON’T HAVE TO STOP YOURLIFE TO CHANGE ITS DIRECTION.
SPROTT SHAW COLLEGEINTRODUCTION4 5
SUPPORT SYSTEMAt Sprott Shaw, we take pride in offering an
educational experience that’s truly supportive.
That means giving you the advice you need to be
successful even before you enroll. Our one-on-one
advising will be your first glimpse of the continual
support you’ll receive from our staff before, during,
and after your program. Should you ever need to
advance your industry qualifications down the road,
you can enroll in our lifetime refresher training. If you
have the drive to succeed, we’ll gladly assist you in
gaining the tools to do so.
ADAPTING TO YOUIf our long and storied history has taught us one thing,
it’s the importance of being able to adapt at all times.
That’s why our programs and courses are designed
to be dynamic and flexible, just like your lifestyle. Our
rolling program start dates ensure there are no waiting
lists for most programs, which makes it easy for you
to learn what you want when you want to learn it.
Whether you’re interested in full-time or part-time,
there’s a study option to suit your schedule; in fact
there are over 100 programs in 12 locations to choose
from. When you’re finished school, our career advisors
and intensive job search assistance programs will
ensure you get the best possible start to your career.
EDUCATION ROOTS THAT RUN DEEPA long time ago our founders Robert James Sprott
and William Henry Shaw had a vision. They wanted
to create a college offering the right programs to
meet the needs of the current economy and broader
community; programs that provided students with
relevant skills for meaningful jobs in high growth
industries. Over 100 years later that’s still exactly
what Sprott Shaw provides.
Sprott Shaw offers a different option beyond what is
currently expected of the private and public sectors
within the educational system. We offer accredited,
relevant, respected education, and training delivered
in a modern way. Also, our size and history sets us
apart from other private institutions.
LEARNING WITH PURPOSE
What made you choose Sprott Shaw to
complete your Practical Nursing program?
After I graduated from the Health Care
Assistant program, my employers were really
impressed with my education and the skills I
had developed at Sprott Shaw. Since my fi rst
experience was so successful, it was easy to
choose Sprott Shaw for my next career move.
How did your classes fi t with your daily
schedule?
It worked out well. I had my work schedule
and my school schedule, which all had
to come together. It would have been a
nightmare if it weren’t for my advisor, Ursula.

What made you decide to get more
education?
A lot has changed since I graduated from high
school in 1982. I felt that to be able to compete
in an environment where people ten years
younger seem to have the advantage, I had to
go back to school to contemporize my skill-set.
Also, I realized that being in fi nance was not
who I was and I desperately needed a career
change to be able to follow my passion.
How did you fi nd the Sprott Shaw experience?
I felt very at home at Sprott Shaw. The small
class sizes made the learning process very
personalized. It is not as intimidating as being
in a class with hundreds. It’s defi nitely more
hands on as well.

What was the admissions process
like for you?
The whole process was very straightforward.
They helped me get my student loans
approved and we went over it step-by-step
to iron out all the important details.
Did you know what program you wanted
to take before you decided to upgrade
your education?
I actually fi rst envisioned myself teaching
high-school literature. But after working
with the advisors to gauge my skills,
personality, and interests, they helped me
realize what I really wanted. They helped me
achieve my goals and showed a spectacular
amount of encouragement; without Sprott
Shaw I would have never had the courage to
publish my books.

How did you fi nd the admissions process?
The admissions process was really smooth and
easy. I exchanged a few emails with the people
at Sprott Shaw and they arranged a campus
visit and tour for me. I met with some of the
faculty and saw the equipment—I was really
impressed.
What would you tell someone who was
looking into Sprott Shaw?
Sprott Shaw can help you get precisely what
you need to enter your specifi c trade. If you
know what you want, Sprott Shaw can get
you there. I’d recommend it to anybody who
is looking to genuinely learn and re-enter the
work force quickly.
How was the faculty?
They make you feel like you belong. They are just
excellent and the kind of support I got from them
was absolutely amazing. Even after I graduated
they supported me by helping me kick-start my
fi rst business.
Did you know what program you wanted to take
before you decided to upgrade your education?
No, I knew I wanted to start my own business,
but I didn’t know how to go about it. The advisors
assessed my future goals and aspirations,
and advised me to combine the business
administration course with one in tourism. After I
graduated, they provided me with a tremendous
amount of support, even going so far as helping
me with my communication strategy. Without
that support I would never have been able to
start my own business.

Employment in this occupational group is projected to
increase in the next few years. This is a great time to enter
this field because many jobs will become available due to a
high level of retiring workers now through 2015.
Entry-level positions often provide considerable potential
for advancement. Industry sources indicate that self-
managed individuals with strong initiative who are willing to
continuously learn new skills and upgrade old ones are the
most likely candidates for promotion.
Payroll Administrators are specifically concerned with
employee pay and benefits. They maintain employee records
(for example, attendance and overtime) and use the records
to calculate pay and benefit entitlements. They also prepare
and check statements of earnings and provide information
to employees on payroll matters, benefit plans and collective
agreement terms.
Once education requirements are met, grads can complete
and submit the Application for Certification to receive the
Payroll Compliance Practitioner (PCP) certification from the
Canadian Payroll Association (CPA).

The future job prospects for this group remain at “above
average” with projected new jobs and openings due to
retirements (between now and 2015) remaining high.
Employment growth projections vary considerably between
occupations. These variations will depend mainly on the
prospects for economic growth in each industrial sector, but
will also depend on each industry’s business structure and
on the impact technology has on middle management
functions in large organizations.
Managers are found throughout all industries and
government. There is a great variation not only in the work
settings but also in the working conditions among these
managerial groups. Managers plan, organize, direct, and
control the activities of the branch or department for which
they are responsible or the business they operate. They also
develop and implement policies and systems for their branch
or department.
This program gives the student the necessary skills to be
competitive in the business world today.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES COURSES
General Office Clerk
Clerical
Receptionist
Database
Virtually all projected openings in this field result
from the need to replace retiring workers. A high rate of
worker turnover in these occupations will create many
additional openings.
This is a very large occupational group because most
businesses require clerks to ensure that records are properly
kept, clients are attended to and office equipment is
efficiently used. Most clerks perform general clerical duties,
though some have specialized tasks or concentrate on one
type of work.
Workers in this clerical group perform a range of duties to
keep offices running smoothly. Often their titles describe their
main responsibilities (for example, receptionist), but most
workers will be involved to some extent in a variety of tasks.
Although their workloads will vary by size and type of
office, general office clerks or clerk/typists generally type
correspondence, reports and other documents. They also
maintain filing, inventory, mailing and database systems.
In addition, they may provide general information to clients,
maintain records, and perform routine bookkeeping tasks.

BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
Accounting Clerk
Receptionist
Invoice Clerk
Secretary
These professionals represent a growing proportion of the
total clerical and administrative positions. With the growth in
new technologies, administrative officers are able to perform
and manage a wider range of tasks giving managers more
time to deal with higher level tasks. The fast-growing small
business sector increasingly requires the services of this
occupational group. Those in this field are usually not subject
to major swings related to business cycles, but are affected
more by changes in organizations and technology. Due to
the large size of this group, even an average growth rate will
provide a significant number of job openings.
Business Administrative officers oversee creating a variety
of organizational procedures, set work priorities,
and manage the supply of administrative services, such
as reports, data entry, ordering supplies, and coordinating
security services. They may also handle some petty cash
and direct the work of clerical staff. They are a very large
occupational group and employed throughout the private
as well as public sectors.
The role of administrative officer can vary tremendously
depending on the organization and work load. Typical
duties would include completing work assignments for staff
members, and finding ways to streamline administrative
procedures. For example, administrative officers establish
work priorities, delegate work to office support staff, and
ensure deadlines are met and procedures are followed.
They oversee and coordinate office procedures and routines,
and put new methods in place when necessary.

related material from handwritten copy or machine dictation,
using a computer. In addition, their duties may include
the preparing of presentation materials, compiling data,

greeting visitors and directing them to the appropriate
person. They may handle routine invoicing, payments, order
office supplies, and they may supervise other office workers.
Legal Assistants are required to have understanding of
the vocabulary and processes of law. They handle and
format legal correspondence such as deeds, wills, affidavits
and briefs. They also proofread outgoing documents and
correspondence to make sure that the documents agree with
legal procedures and grammatical usage. In some cases they
attend court or meetings to take notes or minutes.

COMMUNITY SUPPORT WORKER— ASSISTED LIVING
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
Mental Health Assistant
Group Home Worker
Palliative Care Worker
Life Skills Coach
Community support workers administer and implement
a variety of social assistance programs and community
services. They assist clients in dealing with personal and
social problems. They are employed by social service
and government agencies, group homes, correctional
facilities, and other establishments.
Industry sources suggest that opportunities will be best in
job training programs, residential care facilities, and private
social service agencies. Employment opportunities are much
better for those who have appropriate post-secondary
education. The growing population of elderly persons, the
mentally disabled, and developmentally challenged will
maintain the need for these workers. Community support
workers support and aid recipients of social assistance and
pensions. They provide assistance to clients living in group
homes and half-way houses by facilitating and supervising
their activities. They may work in crisis intervention and
emergency shelter services.
They also can assist in evaluating the effectiveness of
treatment programs by tracking (observing, reporting
and documenting) clients’ behavioral changes and
responses to interventions. Community support workers
maintain contact with other social service agencies and
other members of a multi-disciplinary team involved with
their clients to provide information and to obtain feedback
on clients’ overall progress. This work is done under
the supervision of social workers (Licensed health care
professionals—could be RN’s OT’s PT’s Mental Health Case
Managers, Social Workers, Dr.’s) or health care professionals.

these workers. Growth is also expected in the area of First
Nations outreach and community development, especially
for youth and in rehabilitation. Employment opportunities
are much better for those who have appropriate post-

implement a variety of social assistance programs and
community services (life skills workshops, substance abuse
treatment programs and other community and social service
programs). They assist clients in dealing with personal and
social problems. They are employed by social service and
government agencies, group homes, correctional facilities
and other establishments.
Community and social service workers may interview
clients to obtain their case histories and other background
information. They may prepare intake reports, assess their
clients and investigate their eligibility for social benefits.
If necessary, they will refer their clients to other social
services. Later they meet again with their clients to assess
their progress, give them support and discuss any difficulties
or problems. Community and social service workers may
work in schools as para-professionals assisting with children
with special needs along side occupational therapists or
provide respite for families with children with special needs.

The need for Health Care Assistants, Resident Care
Attendants, Home Support Workers, Long-term Care Aides,
and Live-In Care givers continues to grow at an increasing
rate. Health Care Assistants provide and maintain a safe
and clean environment in health care facilities and in
patient’s homes.
They provide clients with assistance in activities of daily
living such as bathing, dressing, and grooming. Sometimes
they serve meal trays and feed patients. To help patients
recover, they lift, turn or massage patients and they may also
supervise patients’ exercise routines.
They take basic measurements, such as patients’ blood
pressure temperature and pulse. They collect specimens,
such as urine, administer suppositories, enemas, and perform
other procedures. They transport patients in wheelchairs
or stretchers for treatment or surgery, carry medical items
(messages, reports, requisitions and specimens) from one
department to another, and maintain an inventory of supplies.
They provide basic patient care including supplying and
emptying bed pans.
The additional Early Childhood courses will provide the
students with the skills to provide a caring and educational
environment where children are able to thrive. They will
contribute to the well-being of the family as well.
This program gives the student the necessary skills to belong
to this “in-high-demand” occupation. Live-ins usually work
longer hours; however, if they work evenings or weekends
they may get time off. Although living-in may isolate them
from their family and friends; these workers often become
part of their employer’s family and may derive satisfaction
from caring for them.

The two most recent labour market studies in BC have both
come to the same conclusion—tourism in BC is a growth
industry. There has been speculation that there will be an
increase of about 100,000 new jobs by 2020 due to new
jobs and current workers retiring. Although this is great
news, it does pose some challenges, not the least of which
is establishing a strategy to make sure that BC has enough
skilled people in the right place at the right time.
If you are interested in working in the accommodation
industry, positions as a front desk agent, housekeeper or bell
person are great ways to get an introduction to this sector.
Along with meeting people from around the world, these
front-line staff members have the advantage of learning
about the various aspects of the hotel business (and an
opportunity to climb the corporate ladder).
For those who are more interested in being behind the
scenes, the accommodation industry also requires workers for
business and trade-related positions—including accountants,
marketers, cooks, bakers and carpenters.
With thousands of events being hosted at BC properties each
year—such as conferences, weddings, seminars and so on—
the accommodation sector also requires sales, support and
event staff. An integral part of any hotel team includes sales
representatives, concierges, event coordinators and others
who help bring business to the property and ensure all of the
events run smoothly.
So, whether you’re interested in being on the front lines or
behind the scenes, working at a mountain resort, wilderness
campground or a cosmopolitan hotel in the heart of a
bustling city—a career in this dynamic industry can definitely
accommodate you.
This program offers AHLA (American Hotel and Lodging
Association) certificates.

Rapid growth in the accommodation and food services
industry is being driven by a rapidly growing tourism sector,
and this will create employment growth for this occupation.
This industry, which employs all of these workers, is expected
to grow faster than the all-industry average due to retiring
workers and industry growth. There has been speculation
that there will be an increase of about 100,000 new jobs by
2020. Vancouver is rated as one of the top ten destination
cities in the world and will continue to attract tourists in
the near future. Graduates in this industry will assist with all
aspects of guest services and present a positive impression
of the establishment. They make room reservations, provide
information and services to guests and receive payment for
services. They are employed by hotels, motels and resorts.
Workers in this occupational group make room reservations,
register arriving guests, assign rooms and answer enquiries
regarding hotel services and registration by letter,
telephone and in person. They also respond to guests’
enquiries, requests and complaints. They compile and
check daily record sheets, guest accounts, receipts and
vouchers using computerized or manual systems, and they
present statements of charges to departing guests and
receive payment.
