Foundation • Portable stackable credentials or credits allow a student to quickly achieve industry
certification at a community college that leads direct to employment. Typically, these programs are geared toward adult learners with schedules more open to individuals with jobs and families.

• Competency-based education is an "educational process or program that measures students' knowledge, skills, and experience through assessments instead of, or in addition to, measuring their credit or clock hours." The "competencies," or skills and knowledge that students must demonstrate, will depend largely on the program of study, but may include concepts such as problem solving, conflict management, and presentation skills.

• Hands on apprentice and mentors provides workplace experience and support.
• Linked relevant learning means related to needs of the individual, families and the communities – Make your own path!
• 13 hours of learning time = 1 college credit = $190 tuition

Instructor and Presenter Sandra Lee is the Academic Chair for Library Information Technology
at SAIT Polytechnic. After completing an MLIS at UBC, she worked as a Youth Services Librarian and Multimedia Centre Manager at Richmond Public Library. After a brief time at North Vancouver City Library, she moved to Hong Kong and taught Library Studies courses for Technicians, BEd and MSc students. Relocating back to Canada was difficult but when she landed in Victoria, BC, she found very rewarding work at a Health Research network and in an academic library in a small private, for-profit University. Coordinating online conferences for yourschoollibrary.org brought Sandra together again with International colleagues in school libraries. Between 2007 and 2010 several virtual conferences were held to discuss the future of libraries, the school inside the library, information literacy and reading. Now at SAIT, she is back where her heart is: post-secondary library education. Her research interests include information literacy, reading research and adult learners.
