Absent Len Maracle 4 On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to submit the 1980-81 Annual Report on the Justice Institute of British Columbia. In an age of unprecedented inflation, this year's report describes how a public organization can effectively serve its provincial community and efficiently manage publicly entrusted dollars. 1980-81 reflects both a doubling of educational activity at the Institute and a significant reduction in average student costs, an achievement worthy of note. Chairman's Remarks The support of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of AttorneyGeneral has been a key to the success of the Institute. Their financial support in operating and capital funding has permitted this institution to develop the environment and the programs that train an important segment of public servants within the Province, those concerned with justice and public safety. The detailed divisional reports that follow articulate the magnitude of these programs. The establishment of the Emergency Health Services Academy as a Division of the Justice Institute was a highlight of the year. The smooth transition of the new Division into the daily operation of the Institute illustrated the nature of the good working relationship that exists between the Institute and the Emergency Health Services Commission of the Ministry of Health. The addition ofthis major training responsibility has and will enhance the ability of the Institute to provide services to the entire field of justice and public safety. The Board looks forward to the integration of the Corrections Staff Development Division and the Courts Training Division into the Institute. The benefits, both academic and financial, will enhance the quality of programs and increase the services that will become available. The confusion with respect to the lnstitute's role in fire services training has been of concern to the Board. Nonetheless, it is understood that the creation of a new and innovative response to training cannot come into existence without difficulties. It is anticipated that these problems will be resolved within the new year and that fire services training will become a major Division within the mandate of the Institute. This year, Canadians from Alberta and Ontario and visitors from Australia, New Zealand, Kuwait, England and the United States, came to see and learn about an innovative idea in action. Written enquiries have been received from Holland requesting more information on the Justice Institute. Plans are underway which might allow cooperative exchanges to occur, so that more may learn and benefit from this kind of cross system concept. 5 The Board is proud of what is occuring at the Justice Institute for British Columbians. Creative people conceived and nurtured an idea. Innovative legislators supported and endorsed the proposal. Conscientious public officials and public servants have worked hard to get the Justice Institute underway. Courses dealing with pertinent justice and public safety issues are being developed and delivered, not only in the Lower Mainland, but across British Columbia. On behalf of the Board, I congratulate the Principal for his perceptive leadership, the administrative team for their dedication and hard work and the faculty and staff of the Justice Institute for their enthusiasm and commitment. It is primarily due to their efforts that the Justice Institute is meeting its legislated goals. Robert J. Stewart Chairman of Board 6 Last year my remarks closed witn Longfellow's quote: "Not enjoyment, and not sorrow is our destined end or way But to act, that each tomorrow find us further than today." Principal's Remarks The action of reviewing the achievements of the past year is of considerable value. Daily we address issues, effect change, solve problems and achieve objectives, to a greater or lesser degree, in seeking to fulfill the lnstitute's mission. Reflecting on past years permits us an opportuity to see how dramatically we have changed and how far we have advanced in the pursuit of our goals. Client satisfaction and support, coupled with the positive reinforcement of the Ministry of Education and the community at large, indicates that 1980-81 has been a most successful and productive year for the Justice Institute. Student training days increased by 31,472 over 1979-80, average student training day costs decreased by approximately $17.00 a day and the total distribution of financial support broadened to reflect the wide range of clients that the Institute serves (50% Ministry of Attorney-General, 22% Ministry of Health and 28% Ministry of Education). With the incorporation of the recommendations of Phase II of our Five Year Plan by the Board, the organization of the Institute has moved towards stability. As soon as the Corrections Staff Development Division and the Courts Training Division are fully integrated into the Institute, considerably more energy and talent will be directed towards the enhancement of all educational and training programs. Work has commenced on Phase Ill of the Five Year Plan and with the assistance of our major clients, we will soon be in a position to project a plan of growth and development for the next five years. Despite the notable achievements that are detailed within the following pages, no report would be complete without comment on the difficult issues of the year that continue to require attention. Lack of resolution surrounding the division of the property between the Jericho Hill School and the Institute has placed the entire capital building program on hold. This in turn has delayed our ability to approach the City of Vancouver with an application to rezone our property and obtain necessary building permits. These delays are most frustrating since the approval of capital funds for the specialized facilities of both the Fire and Police Academies has been achieved through the Management Advisory Council and the Ministry of Education. These issues will be vigorously pursued. 7 The confusion concerning the role of the Institute in providing training to the respective branches of the fire service of the Province has been of specific concern during this past year. The process of clarifying the relationship between the Institute and the Fire Commissioner's office surrounding the delivery of training continues to draw energy from the sources that should be concentrating on the development and delivery of training programs. I anticipate that these issues will be resolved early in the new year permitting the Fire Academy to grow in concert with the other divisions of the Institute. In conclusion, 1980-81, has found us closer to the achievement of our objectives. The successes are obvious and are to be shared equally with everyone that has been associated with the Institute. The intelligent and wise direction of the Board; the exceptional talents and leadership of all administrators, qnd the competency and dedication of the faculty and staff has made the Justice Institute an institution that deserves our pride, our respect and our dedication.

Divisional Report This year the Divisional staff undertook a total of 8,894 student training days covering a variety of activities. In addition to regularly scheduled courses, new courses were developed and delivered to meet specific field needs. Some of these included hostage survival, career planning, conflict resolution by mediation, violence in families, managing and resolving conflict and situational leadership. The primary focus for Institutional Services section was toward improving the quality of service delivery. The basic·Juvenile Security Officer program was refined and several examining processes, to be used next year, were field tested. Physical fitness standards for security officers were introduced to the Branch and Basic training courses have been adjusted to permit time for physical training and testing. Statistics are being analyzed from the six month evaluation completed by all students regarding their training experiences. Course content analysis meetings were held to ensure that program material is evaluated, updated and changed as necessary. The Community Services section developed lesson objectives for each session of the Probation Officer Basic training program. Detailed lesson plans have been completed for the adult and family functional areas. Training emphasized experiential learning and uses current adult education theories to allow maximum learning opportunities for students. A study to establish a competency base for family court counsellors was undertaken. When complete, results will assist the Division to identify training needs and establish criteria for recruitment and selection. Wherever possible, Community and Institutional programs are being integrated. As a result of a refined needs analysis process, the Staff Development Division is taking a more active role in identifying the type and frequency of programs to be offered. The manpower inventory, now in use, will be a valuable part of this process and will assist both Staff Development and the field. Corrections administrative support staff attended the first centrally developed training program and more secretarial courses are planned for the next fiscal year. 18 The year was extremely active for training staff and in addition to the increased number of courses, several special projects were completed or initiated. The organizational relationship between the Corrections Branch and the Justice Institute was furthered by the development of a contractual agreement which ensures the continuance of the types of services available through Corrections Staff Development. The Division will continue to play an active and responsive training and development role in meeting the identified needs of the Corrections Branch. Within the framework of this professional post-secondary educational institution we look forward to a new and challenging relationship as an enhanced opportunity to better serve the training interests of the Corrections Branch of the Ministry of Attorney-General. John Laverock Director 19 Educational Services Division Mission Statement Educational Services Division promotes and supports cross-systems programs and educational services at the Justice Institute and across British Columbia by providing 1) community and outreach conferences, workshops and seminars; 2) multi-media library and media resource centre; 3) cross-system management programs; 4) program development services; 5) psychological services; 6) contracted programs; 7) Court Services training liaison. Divisional Report Community Programs During its second year of operation Community Programs expanded the number and types of programs offered to provide: - a forum for the discussion of justice and public safety issues; - training to increase cross-systems participants' skills in dealing effectively with their work and - information and education on British Columbia's justice and public safety system. Three categories of programs are offered through the section. Interdisciplinary Programs involve workshops and seminars on current issues in the justice and public system and are designed for representatives from a range of professional, community and interested citizens' groups. Two examples were a major conference on the Sexual Abuse of Children for cross-system professionals and a workshop on Head Injuries for nurses and emergency medical assistants. Programs for Private Agencies or Community Groups are designed either specifically for one group or for representatives of several agencies with a common training need. During 1979-80 a series of programs were run on topics such as skills for communicating, stress management, family violence and leadership skills. Public Forums and Courses are organized to increase the public's awareness of their rights and responsibilities in relation to justice and public safety. This year a topical series was developed and delivered for the general public at Robson Square on the Constitutional Hassle. The series was videotaped for rebroadcast on the province's new Knowledge Network of the West. This year Community Programs staff initiated an outreach program to meet justice and public safety needs in areas of British Columbia outside the Lower Mainland. Working with community groups, individuals and local professionals, Community Programs Outreach developed workshops on topics such as family law, juvenile delinquency, child sexual abuse, wife battering, practical working skills and crime prevention. Communities including Prince George, Terrace, Trail, Victoria, Kamloops, Fort Nelson, Dawson Creek and Vernon have involved themselves with the outreach program opportunities. 20 Court Services The Court Services section increased their course offering to Deputy Sheriffs, Court Clerks and for supervisors and managers throughout the Court Services system by 220%. The development of a new course for Court Registrars was started during the year. A Designing A Curriculum Workshop (DACUM) was conducted and the results have been forwarded to the Judiciary and Court Services Headquarters for their input prior to the course being written and offered at the Institute. Both the Deputy Sheriff Basic Course and the Court Clerk Training Course continue to be updated and offered to staff throughout the province. More than twenty-one management training programs were offered by Court Services this year. It is anticipated that this new thrust in developing and delivering management training for supervisors and managers will be further supported in the coming year through the Justice Institute Management Development Centre. Instructional Services The section contains a multi-media library centre, media centre, a continuing education unit and a materials preparation unit. Increased demands from the lnstitute's clients, both on campus and in the field had an impact on the organizational structure and service profile of Instructional Services. Circulation statistics indicate that the use of Resource Centre print and nonprint materials has increased an average of 100% over any equivalent time period in the previous year. The Continuing Education function in the Resource Centre has expanded rapidly. There are now over 1, 100 registered borrowers utilizing the educational resources available through the Centre. The use of photocopied articles in the field increased more than 300% necessitating the introduction of new response procedures to meet increased demands. · A major development for the Centre was the incorporation of a "Teaching Library" to ensure the integration of library skills instruction into the curricula of the Academies. The Centre developed a slide-tape presentation for this purpose and another on Legal Research is being developed. In addition, class presentations and reference requests were up 100% this year. In December 1980, a Justice Institute sponsored study entitled "A Proposal to Establish Inmates' Libraries in Provincial Correctional Institutions" was published in several journals. As well, three major bibliographies and thirty comprehensive lists were compiled by the Resource Centre and Continuing Education Librarians. The Resource Centre collection continues to grow at the rate of 100 to 150 catalogued items a month. The Media Centre's in-house production of curricula support materials in videotape and slide-tape formats for the Academies has increased. "Driver 21 Training" and "After the Honeymoon" were major videotape productions; the latter has been distributed around the province and helped to form the basis for the initial pilot schedule for the Knowledge Network of the West. "One-Fiche-Two-Fiche" and the "Justice Institute Orientation" have both been seen by large numbers of people associated with the justice and public safety community. A major series of crisis intervention videotapes and defensive driving tapes are being developed by the Media Centre staff for use in the new year. Projectors and videotape playback units are now standard equipment in many classrooms. The number of training sessions requiring production equipment has increased dramatically and more video recording equipment has been purchased to respond to requests. Construction has begun to expand the footage available to the production staff, so that graphics, layout facilities and instructional supplies can be incorporated in the Media Centre. It is expected that demands in all areas will increase along with the volume and type of training required at the institute. Instructional Services' goal is to provide an adaptable and flexible spectrum of services, suited to the unique requirements of the Justice lnstitute's clients groups. Program Development Program Development continued to provide services for the Academies of the Justice Institute, as well as for organizations external to the Institute. Work increased to the .point where a second Program Development specialist was brought on staff to meet growing service requests. This year some important educational initiatives were undertaken by Program Development. For the first time, faculty trained in adult education methods and techniques were available to assist with program design and evaluation. DACUM (Designing A Curriculum) workshops were successfully conducted with the result that the courses so developed were well received. Also, programs were systematically evaluated to determ~ne the extent to which learning objectives were obtained. Complementing these activities were a series of seminars held to assist other faculty to design and conduct their courses. For instructors, instructional techniques courses were run with opportunities for follow-up and on-going consultations. Program Development services were provided to organizations external to the Institute by way of Contract Services. Courses were developed, or are in the process of being developed, for the Ministry of Attorney-General, in the area of Executive Development; the B.C. Coroners Services; the Ministries of Forestry, Labour, Environment; the B.C. Human Rights Commission and the Land Titles Branch of the Ministry of Attorney-General. A comprehensive Land Titles School has been established to provide educational opportunities for employees of B.C. Land Titles Offices'. During 1980, the Executive Committee of the Institute requested that the feasibility of a Management Development section be studied. The section would offer courses to managers on a cross systems basis, regardless of their organizational context. After completing the study, two pilot programs were 22 developed and offered to analyse the recommendations. The successful experience of the programs points the way to the establishment of a Management Development Centre which will coordinate and develop all management programs emanating from the Justice Institute. Psychological Services During the past year, Psychological Services provided the following services to the Academies at the Institute and to individuals and groups in the field. 1) Ongoing training in the classroom relating to Crisis Intervention techniques; Stress Effects; Dealing with Hostage Situations; Psychology of Fire Setting Behaviour and Spouse Awareness. 2) Counselling and crisis intervention support to students, staff and clients from the justice and public safety community dealing with problems concerning job-related stress; marital relationships; alcohol; suicidal and homicidal crises and other problems. 3) Consulting and talking with a variety of justice and public safety groups throughout British Columbia. Over the year the demand for services has grown to the point where a second Psychologist was added to the staff on a part time basis. To date much of the work has been done on a pilot project basis to explore the need that exists for psychological services in the justice and public safety community. Our challenge in the year to come is to identify which of the needs can be addressed by the staff and resources of the Justice Institute. In developing and delivering its educational programs and services, Educational Services Division strives to support and strengthen the concept of the Justice Institute as an innovative, creative and cost effective post secondary institution. Larry Goble Dean 23 Emergency Health Services Academy Mission Statement To develop and provide programs, courses of instruction and services consistent with the identified needs of the Emergency Health Services Commission under the authority of the Emergency Health Services Act. Divisonal Report The establishment of the Emergency Health Services Academy at the Justice Institute has been heralded by the emergency health care community as a step forward in the provision of professional training for British Columbia's emergency health services. The Academy has been reorganized into five program areas. The areas of concentration include Infant Transport, Advanced Life Support, Community Basic Life Support, Emergency Medical Assistant Levels I and II and Continuing Education. The new structure will provide an enhanced coordination, a uniformity of educational standards and a level of professional trauma speciality competency essential to meet the demanding mandate of the Emergency Health Services Commission. During the past year, the priorities for the Academy were: 1) the development of a distance and inhouse educational delivery system for Emergency Health Services personnel. The program, to train Emergency Medical Assistant volunteers in their own communities, combined a directed study and a classroom delivery system. Community Unit Officers, trained by the Academy, act as the Community Instructors for the courses. The program promises to be an effective and cost efficient way of meeting the training needs of full and part-time employees across British Columbia. 2) the restructuring of the Emergency Medical Assistant II program. The course objectives were realigned to meet the skills ambulance personnel require to perform effectively on the job. A six week course provides instruction from a variety of health professionals and opportunities to practice newly acquired skills within a controlled environment. The unique structure of the Justice Institute allows ambulance, fire and police students to develop common and cooperative skills together in controlled simulations. 3) the introduction of the Trauma Program. The program provides communities with ambulance personnel trained in the skills necessary to stabilize a trauma victim at the scene of an accident and enroute to hospital. 4) the introduction of the Community Basic Life Support Program. A cardiopulmonary resuscitation section for both public and advanced Cardiac Life Support courses were introduced to the provincial medical community. The programs promise to make a significant impact on the survival rate of heart attack victims. With a staff of five Nurse Consultants and four Regional and three Academy based seconded ambulance personnel, the Academy is prepared to develop and deliver excellent training to emergency health services personnel across British Columbia. Tony Williams Director 24 Mission Statement To develop and provide training programs and services consistent with the identified needs of the Fire Commissioner and the fire services' community of British Columbia. Fire Academy Divisional Report During the second year of the Academy's operation, Fire Officers from paid and volunteer sectors received 2,242 days of training. The figure represents a 167% increase over the previous year's student training statistics and reflects the positive spirit of growth and development of this Division of the Institute. An innovation in program delivery during 1980 - 81 was the implementation of nine regional weekend seminars for Volunteer Firefighters across British Columbia. The seminars are divided into two areas, a basic training program for new departments and a trainers' training session. To date, the program has been received with enthusiasm. Letters and evaluations from the students have read, "... it is great to know that the Volunteer Firemen of B.C. are getting such fire training from the Fire Academy'' and"... your program has given us new ideas and has greatly increased our efficiency in the Fire Department". It is anticipated that there will be approximately twentytwo weekend programs in the new year. This year the Academy, in collaboration with Pacific Marine Training Institute, concentrated on planning the amount and location of land and the types of installations required for the proposed Technical Fire Training Centre in the Haney region. Prior to submitting the formal request for approval and funding, all agencies directly or indirectly involved in the site were consulted. Some of the other agencies interested in the site development are Environment Canada; the Departments of Fisheries and Oceans, and Highways; the Ministries of Environment and Forests; B.C. Hydro; District of Maple Ridge and Pacific Vocational Institute. The formal request for the approval of funds for the training complex has been submitted jointly, by the Institute and Pacific Marine Training Institute, to the Ministry of Education's Management Advisory Committee. We look forward to receiving approval in the new year. Dr. Larry Fagan is to be commended for his work with the Fire Academy. Until his resignation in February 1981, Dr. Fagan planned, organized and delivered the Leadership Development programs for the Fire Officers of British Columbia. During 1980 - 81, 111 senior administrators within the fire services community completed a component of the Leadership Development program. Future plans for the Fire Academy include a proposed expansion of the ongoing programs for Fire Officers and Firefighters in the province. The calendar for the new year reflects modest growth and includes in-field training for Volunteer Firefighters throughout British Columbia. In addition, the on-site training complex in the Haney-Maple Ridge district promises to open up a variety of new training opportunities for British Columbia's Firefighters. Bud Kellett Director 25 Police Academy Mission Statement To develop and provide police training programs and courses of instruction consistent with the identified needs of the Police Community of British Columbia. To assure that Municipal Peace Officers have a level of competence in skill, knowledge and understanding that meet the law enforcement requirements of the Police Act and attending regulations. Divisional Report 1980 was a year of evaluation, reorganization, change and progress. This year the Training Rules were presented to the Police Community. After seven months of consultation with Police Boards, Chiefs, Police Associations, B.C. Federation of Peace Officers and advice from the Training Officers Advisory Committee, the Rules were accepted. The B.C. Police Commission approved the Rules as policy in November of 1980; they have been signed by Attorney-General Williams and will be gazetted in the future. The police career moved closer to professionalism through the Rules that provide for minimum training standards as a prerequisite to continued employment as a Municipal Constable. In addition, a person who has been qualified or certified under the Rules is eligible to the office of Municipal Constable, for a period of time, should their employment be terminated. Also, the Rules allow a person with previous police experience to qualify as a Municipal Constable by writing exemption examinations and submitting to a challenge procedure. In keeping with the growth and development of the total Institute, there has been a reorganization within the Police Academy that has strengthened a number of program areas. Four instructors were assigned to a new instructional services section to develop, coordinate and administer advanced training sessions under the direction of the Advanced Training Program Director, resulting in an extensive advanced training program for the new year. Professional expertise has become available through the Institute to assist in the development of curricula. One of the first courses developed was the Radio Dispatchers/Complaint Takers program. The student evaluations indicate that the new methods are useful in developing new programs. The recruit training section has been busy. This year 528 recruits were enrolled in the Academy. It appears that the training starts in the new year will increase by 50% to meet the Municipal Departments identified training needs. The advise concerning the content of the upper training blocks was considered. Remedial adjustments were made to avoid overlaps with curricula from the lower level blocks. The change was met with positive reaction by the students and has improved standards. 26 In August 1980, two candidates submitted to the first three-day challenge procedure. The procedure, designed to excuse candidates for Municipal Constable positions from all recruit training, prevents training for training sake. Persons eligible for the challenge are R.C.M. Police Officers who have served in British Columbia and persons who were Police Officers in other provinces or were employed in B.C. but are no longer an eligible Municipal Constable. Those belonging to the last two categories must first pass an exemption examination. The examination excuses the individual from the Basic Peace Officers Training program, blocks I through Ill. The challenge process excuses an individual from the General Peace Officers program, blocks IV and V. The candidates were pleased with the program and after minor changes the process, consisting of simulations, skill testing and oral examinations, will be repeated for eight candidates in June 1981. The Assessment Centre provided service to the Police Community by assisting in administering pre-selection and promotional procedures for 238 candidates. A further 35 Peace Officers were trained to be Assessors. During the year, a reliability study on the methodology used in assessing personnel and prospective personnel was conducted. The study showed that the reliability level of the methodology is 96%. This indicates a satisfactory validity level, but it is anticipated that a validity study will be feasible in the future. The driver training program has been revamped, emphasizing skillful! and safe driving. A portion of the Boundary Bay Airport runway was secured as a permanent location for the course and a classroom was furnished in an adjacent communication building. John Post Director 27 Finance & Administration Division Mission Statement The Division ensures the development and maintenance of physical facilities; the establishment and maintenance of personnel, financial, and accounting systems; the provision of budgeting, purchasing, receiving, stores and communication systems support to all Divisions; and informs and advises the lnstitute's Board on all financial matters. Divisional Report The Division is responsible for all the business aspects of the lnstitute's operations. These responsibilities include budgets, accounts, purchases, staff relations, communications, physical plant and student support. In the area of personnel and staff relations, the Institute was able to obtain premium savings in the cost of the ·employee benefits package through the establishment of a consortium with four other Colleges/Institutes so that a larger employee grouping was formed to attract a single carrier. The Labour Relations Board certification to the trade union representing Institute employees was clarified; the lnstitute's clerical and support staff are represented by the B.C.G.E.U. while the other employees and the Institute Board have opted for the Fair Comparison Method to determine the salary and working conditions. In the area of finance and budgeting, the Institute is a member of a recently formed consortium which will contract for a high volume mini-computer. As a result, the lnstitute's internal and external reporting requirements will be handled in a cost-effective and time efficient manner. Phase II Capital Program involving renovations and improvements to Blake and Lawrence Halls was completed within budget estimates by the Institute acting as its own general contractor. Current planning calls for the establishment of an on-site student residence, expansion of the Gymnasium complex, completion of the landscaping project for the Jericho Hill campus and the establishment of an integrated Fire Training facility (together with the Pacific Marine Training Institute) at Maple Ridge. The Justice lnstitute's instructional staff are seconded from the field, thus preserving the up-to-date training atmosphere. The support and administrative staff are employed directly by the Institute. At fiscal year end, the Justice Institute had a complement of 115 seconded and directly -employed staff, an increase of 28 during the year. Dean Winram Bursar 28 THORNE RIDDEi.I.
