Dean Winram Director, Finance and Administration (Bursar) ,Justice Institute of British Columbia I REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL The divisional and financial reports in the 1986/87 Annual Report reflect the continuing progress of the Institute as a leader in the field of justice and public safety training and education. The Mission Statement and Goals for the Institute were revised this year to clarify our current mandate and shape the Institute's development into the 1990s. As well, a comprehensive marketing plan was implemented to increase revenue generation and to allow other justice and public safety professionals beyond our province to benefit from the quality programs and services developed at the Institute. This year the Institute developed new ties with another Provincial Government Ministry-the Ministry of Municipal Affairs. This resulted from the Fire Commissioner's Office and functions moving to that Ministry from the Ministry of the Attorney General in November. We look forward to a productive working relationship with Municipal Affairs in future years. This was another busy and very successful year at the Justice Institute. Overall, the Institute realized a 31 % increase in student training days over the previous year, with a total of 77 ,000 student training days. This was achieved while decreasing the average cost per student training day by 23%. Substantial increases in training activities were generated by Corrections, Emergency Health and Fire with the latter Academy realizing the dividends from the earlier investment in the development of distance education packages for the Volunteer Certification program. Tuition fees for Extension Programs and Professional Health Programs increased by 12% over 1985/86. The Institute enjoys a wellearned reputation for the delivery of timely and credible professional development programs for persons employed in the justice and public safety fields. Credit for the achievements over the past year must go to the talented and dedicated faculty, administration, support staff and Board of the Justice Institute to whom I would like to express my gratitude.

Substantial increases in training activity were generated by Corrections, Emergency Health and Fire with the latter Academy reaping the earlier investment in distance education packages for the Volunteer Certification Program. The average cost per STD decreased by 23% compared to the previous year, largely attributable to the economies of scale associated with the increased training volume.

All of the Academies are tending towards the use of distance learning packages (i.e. mail-out kits containing printed, audio and visual materials) which are used in conjunction with the typical classroom-instructor model and pre-reading materials in order to provide for more cost effective training. The Police Academy training volume was down in 1986/87 because of Expo, compared to 1985/86 when the Academy accounted for 28% of training activity, but is projected to return to normal levels in 1987/88.

The Institute has developed a reputation for the delivery of timely and credible professional development programs for people employed in the justice and public safety system. CORRECTIONS ACADEMY A comprehensive and diversified training plan was established for this fiscal year based upon a training needs analysis conducted in all regions in the fall of 1985. The training plan was adjusted and modified throughout the year based on emerging needs and changing priorities with the end result being production of 10,709 student training days, an increase of 25% over the previous fiscal year. All programs were completed within budget allocations and with training staff levels remaining constant. Three Instructor positions and one Program Director position had terms expire during the fiscal year and these positions were filled with newly seconded Branch employees through time-limited leaves of absence. A total of 94 courses were offered by the Corrections Academy. Program Highlights Five recruit courses were completed resulting in 100 newly trained security officers for adult institutions. Additional courses were offered for instructors in self contained breathing apparatus and instructors in chemical agent usage. An additional ten courses were offered on site at institutions dealing with the topic of Preparing for Selection Panels. Additional training opportunities for adult institutional staff were limited by the amount of training relief funding available. Six recruit courses trained 141 new youth supervisors for youth institutions. Due to increases in youth facilities during this year, arrangements were made on short notice to provide on site recruit courses at the Nanaimo Youth Centre and at the Logan Lake (High Valley) Y~uth Facility. Two recruit Probation Officer competency based training programs were offered with all 29 graduates being placed in vacancies throughout the province. A further 17 advanced courses were offered to Probation Officers and Family Court Counsellors covering a variety of topics. In the area of management training, four two-week courses for new supervisors were held and a series of five workshops were offered regionally dealing with the topic of contract administration. A major study was conducted of supervisory and management skills and competencies. This study resulted in a revised curriculum for new supervisors and the establishment of a learning resources database for all management training topics. Competency inventories for both supervisory and management levels were established to assist managers in identifying training needs and determining individual training plans. In addition to programs offered through the Corrections Academy, Regional Staff Development Officers were able to arrange 30 regional workshops and training events plus three regional conferences. In addition, a total 528 employees received individual tuition subsidy for courses taken through regional colleges, institutes and private training organizations. Three modular designed on-the-job training programs were produced and distributed to specific field locations during the year. The first, comprised of 40 individual modules, dealt with the booking and custodial section of the Corrections Administration record entry system. A workshop was held for on-site instructors to discuss administration of the on-the-job training packages. The second package dealt with the inmate trust accounting section of the Corrections Administration records entry system. The third package was directed at administrative support staff and included a number of modules deaHng with office procedures and personnel administration. Development work commenced on a third administrative support package dealing with financial administration. General A new course evaluation system was introduced during the fiscal year to replace the endof-course evaluation forms. The new system includes daily recording of course participant feedback and post course follow-up interviews with a random sample of course participants and supervisors. An independent analysis of the course evaluation system was conducted and the process resulted in a number of positive changes. A study group was established to review alternate methods of training delivery and to recommend means of achieving efficiencies. As a result of the study, several policy changes were made in relation to funding for recertification training and a project was initiated to revise and restructure the institutional recruit training program. The year was a challenging and exciting one for all training staff. The new improved working relationships in the Staff Training Committee resulted in better coordination of training throughout the province. Many initiatives were undertaken to increase the profile of the Corrections Academy within the Corrections Branch, including two newsletters and a revised course calendar format. Results achieved throughout the year in relation to both quality and volume of training reflect the high energy and commitment of all who were involved in the delivery of such a comprehensive training plan. John Laverock Director Corrections Academy COURT SERVICES ACADEMY Deputy Sheriff Training Contract Programs Deputy Sheriff training was centered around the competency-based training program initiated last year. The Deputy Sheriff Upgrade course was conducted twice during this year and is being well received by the experienced Deputies. Handgun and baton training are now regional responsibilities. The Academy assists with this training by conducting training courses for the instructors. Again this year a number of contract programs were run for organizations such as the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Transportation and Highways, Union of B.C. Municipalities and Film Classification Branch. The revenue generated from these programs helped to offset the ongoing costs of the Academy. Registrar Training A total of16 courses were scheduled but only four were conducted. Twelve courses were cancelled due to poor registration and/or budget reallocation. The trained Registrars continue to do an excellent job of instruction. Management/Supervisory Training The bulk of this training is conducted by the individual regions. The Academy contracted several programs with Vancouver and Vancouver Island Regions. The provincial program, entitled Management Skills for Supervisors, which is transferable to community colleges, was conducted four times. Negotiations commenced to conduct a three day followup program. It is proposed that students.take the program approximately one year after taking Management Skills for Supervisors. Physical Fitness Testing The Academy tested 81 candidates for Deputy Sheriff positions during the year resulting in 66 successful candidates. The Deputy Sheriff Instructor made arrangements with the Corrections Branch in Victoria to test 13 candidates in Victoria instead of at the Ins6tute. With the cooperation of the Corrections Branch, we will continue to test Deputy Sheriffs locally when the facilities are available to us. Personnel The term of secondment for the Deputy Sheriff Instructor was extended by one year. The recruitment process for replacement has commenced. The successful candidate will join the Academy in October 1987. General Work began during the year to have the academic plan and budget for fiscal year 1988/89 in place by the end of March, 1988. This will allow better planning and more effective use of our resources. Don Broadbent Director Court Services Academy EDUCATIONAL SERVICES AND EXTENSION PROGRAMS DIVISION The intent of the Division is to provide a variety of education and training support services to the staff, students and client groups involved in Justice Institute programs. These include four major service areas-Program Services, Physical Education Services, Resource Centre and Media Centre. The Division also supports the development and delivery of Extension Programs in accordance with our stated mandate. In addition to our regular services to Academies and Divisions within the Institute, we continue to search out new contracts with people involved in justice and public safety in the community. Some of the organizations we have worked with areCriminal Justice Branch ICBC Office of the Public Trustee B.C. Transit Ministry of Finance Correctional Services of Canada Ministry of Social Services and Housing Government of Yukon Vancouver Health Department Northwood Pulp and Paper Cominco The following is a brief description of the activity highlights of our service and program units. Extension Programs Over 5,400 persons participated in Extension Programs during the year. Some 220 programs were offered on behalf of the Justice Institute, involving three types of programs-interdisciplinary programs for professionals, programs for the public, and programs for private security personnel, resulting in 9,347 training days. Extension Programs co-sponsored these programs with 67 government ministries, educational organizations, societies and centres. Programs covered a range of categories including legislation and policy, assault and violence, children and youth, conflict resolution, crime prevention, staff development and security. New topics offered as interdisciplinary programs for professionals included sessions on juvenile firesetting, addicted adolescents, sexual abuse training program for practitioners, anger managel)1ent with youth, managing community crime prevention programs, adult children from alcoholic families, influencing skills for managers, and training in supervision for administrative and support staff. A new initiative of Extension Programs during 1986/87 was the establishment of a family assault and sexual violence training centre to provide integrated interdisciplinary training on the criminal justice nature of family assault and sexual violence, with emphasis on intervention and prevention. In addition to providing training sessions on child abuse, wife assault, and abuse and neglect of the elderly, a trainin~manual was produced for the Ministry of Attorney General and Women's Programs to provide crisis intervention and supportive counselling skills for those who work with battered women. Thirty-six security courses were offered including regularly scheduled Basic and Level II training courses, training in self defence and control techniques, and a series of continuing education courses. In addition to advertised programs, 30 contract courses were designed and delivered forMinistry of Finance Ministry of Health Ministry of Social Services and Housing Correctional Services of Canada B.C. Transit B.C. Place Vancouver Parks and Recreation Court Services Government of Yukon Ministry of Environment Cominco Northwood Pulp and Paper SPCA Yukon Public Legal Education Society Finlay Forest Products Vancouver Health Department Extension Programs staff continued to assist in organizing and delivering programs across British Columbia. In support of the Institute's provincial mandate, courses were offered in 70 locations during the year. Program Services The mandate of the Program Services Unit was clarified this past year to synchronize the work of this unit with the changing program development requirements of the Institute. As a result the unit now provides services to Academies on a contractual basis according to their specific project needs. The unit is also available on a contractual basis to other justice and public safety organizations. Program Services offers two basic services• the development of print-based materials, including training manuals, instruction aids and policy and procedure documents •the development of training programs including designing and managing specific courses of instruction. A computer and laser printer were acquired to enable the unit to produce quality materials. We plan to eventually have a desk-top publishing system in place. The expanded scope of the unit's client base has provided the opportunity for the Justice Institute to make its resources available for the first time to other components of the Ministry of Attorney General, including the Criminal Justice Branch, the Management Information and Systems Division of Court Services and the Office of the Public Trustee. The Institute's Executive Committee has given Program Services the mandate to implement the Faculty Development Policy for instructors. This involves training new faculty members in instructional techniques and following up with continuing support through consultation services and instructor development programs. Physical Education Services A major Physical Abilities Study and test was completed for the Police Academy. Similar studies and tests were completed for the Correc- tio.ns Academy (Correctional Officers) and Court Services Academy (Deputy Sheriffs) in previous years. These studies involved an extensive review of the job related physical abilities required by officers who are trained at the Justice Institute. In addition to determining the level of physical abilities required for routine components of the job, emphasis was given to the demands created by a variety of critical incidents involving suspects and prisoners. Out of these studies have come•job related physical tests •physical training programs to assist in the development, performance and maintenance of the physical skills required by the officer(s) •skills development programs in self defence and control tactics and •lifestyle information and recommendations. The studies have gained national and international attention from several justice and public safety organizations responsible for standards and training. Ongoing throughout the years has been the supervision of staff and delivery of instruction to students in areas related to physical fitness, self defence and control tactics, and baton and weapon retention. The Institute's Physical Education Services continue to focus on quality education, testing programs and lifestyle training. Media Centre During the year the services of the Media Centre were identified as high priority for all Academies. Use of videotapes as teaching aids in the classroom and as a component of most distance education packages has greatly increased the demand for media productions from our staff, who produced 30 new videos this year for Academies. In addition, increased concerns are building for replacing old and worn out a/v equipment which has undergone heavy usage over the past five years. Two special videos were completed on contract for ICBC on Truck Brake Safety and the Provincial Parole Board on How to Apply for Parole. Staff were also involved in providing and servicing media equipment for all Institute classrooms and for assisting instructors taking equipment to various centres around the province. Plans are underway within the Division to shift some of our financial and staff resources to meet this new challenge. An active Media Centre Advisory Committee, made up of representatives of all Academies and Divisions, has been involved in maximizing the use of our services. Resource Centre The Resource Centre staff loaned 4,100 books and 2,500 audiovisual materials. 6,100 clients visited the Resource Centre and 7,000 requested information by phone. In support of Field Services activities, 10,200 magazine articles were sent on request to clients who receive our monthly Library News publication. Resource Centre staff answered 4,400 reference questions. These included 25 on-line computerized literature searches conducted on QL Systems and Dialog for in-house and field clients on a charge-back basis, on such subjects as undercover operations, risk management, head injuries, fetishes, privatization, fitness standards, and negotiation. Seventy-five Native Indian Reserve fire departments were provided, on request, full library service on a continuing contract with the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs. The Library continued to serve the Institute's Private Security Advisory Committee. Many new items were added to the Hesource Centre including 830 books and 110 audiovisual titles. The Librarians compiled special bibliographies on topics such as custody of children, missing children, interviewing in Corrections, child sexual abuse Calv), juvenile firesetters, police-school liaison officers, and study skills. A microcomputer is used to do audiovisual bookings and word processing. The 4th edition of our a/v catalogue (which was published in June 1985) continued to sell for $5 per copy, with about 800 copies sold to date. As a result of requests from Institute staff, our librarians gave 12 in-class library orientations and 14 faculty orientations. A four panel pictorial display was produced to inform cli- ents of library services, along with handouts on services available to each client group. This has been exhibited at conferences and in the classroom. Larry Goble Dean Educational Services and Extension Programs Division EMERGENCY HEALTH SERVICES ACADEMY Last year the Emergency Health Services Commission, as part of its manpower planning strategy, divided its training requirement into three categories-training to maintain existing levels of service, training to improve the ski11s of the existing service, and training to expand the service. This year's training plan concentrated on the first two categories-recruit and recertification courses to maintain existing service levels, and licence-endorsement courses to provide extra skills to Emergency Medical Assistants (EMAs) in selected communities. As a result of meeting these requirements, the Academy had a record breaking year of activity. Our student training days reached an all-time high (30,037), while our costs decreased from last year's $80.52 to $4 7.48 per student training day. Program Highlights The maintenance of a weII trained part-time Ambulance Service is high a priority for the Emergency Health Services Academy. However, training Emergency Services personnel so that they can perform critical skiUs safely places a heavy responsibility on curriculum design. Safeguards have been built into programs to ensure skill mastery is achieved effectively and economically. The Academy uses a combination of distance education linked to more traditional classroom instruction. Our past practice has been to train parttim ers using a combination of self-study materials and community based instructors. Although partly successful, the print based selfstudy did not match the lea ming styles of our students. This year we developed an upgrading program using a video-tutor system. The students are directed through their course-work by a tutor they can watch on television. Initial tests indicate that the learners favour this over the print based instruction . The video-tutor system is designed to be as much motivational as it is instructional. It supplements the existing telephone-tutor and community instructor system already in place. To maintain the existing level of the fulltime service, several recruit programf' were delivered. Fifteen EMA 3s (Paramedics) are currently in training to fill vacancies in the City of Victoria's Service. Similarly, 48 EMA 2 recruits were trained in order to meet attrition throughout the province. Training EMA 1, EMA 2 and EMA 3 recruits constituted about 25% of our activity and recertification and skill improvement, through endorsement courses, made up the remainder. Intravenous Therapy courses provided additional skills for managing the victims of trauma and the unconscious diabetic. The compulsory Continuing Education program provided further upgrading on a variety of topics. The programs are delivered using print modules supplemented by an interactive television program-via the Knowledge Network. Over 600 students studied topics on hypothermia, carbon monoxide poisoning, trauma and pediatric emergencies. Rapid defibrillation training was also introduced this year. Delays in acquiring the automatic defibrillators meant that only the two pilot programs were run jn Nanaimo and Penticton. The potential of this program was dramatically illustrated during the training. While the class was being taught at Penticton General Hospital, a patient was brought into the adjacent emergency room having suffered a cardiac arrest. The students were able to observe the automatic defibrillator being used successfully. Twenty other communities will receive the program in the next academic year. Year two was completed of the three-year program to train Unit Chiefs in the increasing complexities of their jobs. One hundred of the 150 first-line supervisors have now received the course. A major upgrade of ambulance services was accomplished in Prince George. That commu- nity implemented a new Advanced Life Support Service following the graduation of eight paramedics. Two lives recently saved have been directly attributed to the new Paramedics in that region. The Professional Health Programs section of the Academy could not keep up with the demand for its Advanced Cardiac Life Support c?urses. The courses are designed for physi~ians and nurses. The quality of this program 1s reaffirmed by the continuing demand. Funding from Special Care Services, Ministry of Health, also permitted the Academy to develop two new programs this year. Trauma Management for Nurses and Trauma Management for first line Physicians were offered at selected hospitals around the province. Both courses were well received and appear to meet the needs of those providing emergency care in the smaller community hospitals. . In addition to the contract with our major chent, the Academy also acquired several contracts supplying its training expertise to other health care agencies. In January the Academy hosted the Second Annual Conference for Educators in PreHospital Care. Representatives from across the country attended the two-day meeting and discussed issues related to training content and training process. It was evident from the conference that other provinces are making major advances in their training programs. However, we are still seen as the ground-breaker for man~ new ideas. The conference participants particularly acknowledged the Recertification and Unit Chief programs for their innovative designs. The Institute's objective to become more entrepreneurial took a major step forward as the training year drew to a close. One of the Academy's continuing education programs, Trauma Update, was purchased by Alberta. The video and learning package was sold to Alberta Health Disciplines Board. Future contracts with our neighbour and other provinces look promising as a result of the successful showing of this first program in Alberta. Conclusion The main thrust of this year's training plan was to maintain existing services and where possible to improve the quality of service provided by the existing manpower. Meeting these objectives meant a record number of courses and students for the Academy. Two factors will make next year one of refocussing. Cutbacks will mean that only essential maintenance and selected endorsement programs will be taught by a reduced staff. Also, the Commission will take over the testing and examination function through its Inspections and Examination Branch. The combined effect on the Academy will be such that we will be able to refocus and concentrate on the quality of the teaching in our core programs. Enhancing the quality of our programs even furth.er will not only result in better prehosp1tal care for British Columbians but will also increase the potential for marketing these programs throughout North America. Tony Williams Director Emergency Health Services Academy FIRE ACADEMY This academic year was the most successful in the history of the Fire Academy. Student training days totaJJed 13,549. This represents an increase of 496% over the previous year and is primarily due to the implementation of two certification programs. In addition to implementing the two new programs, development continued on Distance Education materials along with Edukits for the Volunteer Certification program as identified in the five year Training and Education Plan. Volunteer Fire Fighter Certification Program This program provides a standardization of training through distance education and permits access to training by more volunteer fire fighters at a lower training cost. Enrollment in this program commenced in May of this year. Six subjects from the volunteer standards were made available, each with a supporting Edukit. In order to attain certification, fire fighters are required to complete a written examination and, where practical skills are involved, to complete a skills evaluation process. In the first year of the program and commencing in May, 1986, there were 3,103 volunteer fire fighters enrolled in the program. This involved conducting 3,039 examinations. Fifty-two volunteer fire fighters were certified as evaluators through six evaluator train ing courses. By year end, five Edukits had been released. However, still in various stages of production are printed material and video tapes for eight new Edukits. Three of these will be released early in the 1987/88 fiscal year with the other five units shortly thereafter. Six hundred and sixty-one Edukits were sold this year. Distance Education Program The Training and Education Program for the Professional Fire Service was implemented late in this academic year. This distance education program is conducted on a semester basis; within each academic year there are three semesters, each of three months duration. The distance education program is augmented by seven tutors who can be reached by telephone when students need additional help or suggestions. The program is also supported by a liaison officer in each participating department. At the end of the year 11 blocks consisting of 46 units (49 booklets) had been developed and released for Company and Command Officers. Development of blocks for Fire Administration Officers, Fire Prevention Inspectors and Training Officers are nearing completion with a tentative implementation in the Fall semester, 1987. Other Programs Several classroom programs (fire investigation and volunteer fire officer) were conducted along with 15 infield courses. Training for Industrial Fire Protection Officers is currently under review. One of the questions being explored is how this group can access current programs through distance education. Once again, the Academy has been contracted by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada to deliver training programs both in British Columbia and Saskatchewan. In addition to these programs, the Academy conducted several con tract training programs for other organizations. The tuition fees received, along with the sale of Edukits and video dubbing chargeback, generated approximately $132,500. Proposed Satellite Training Centre A proposal for the .fire training facility at Maple Ridge has been presented to government for consideration. We have not received a decision to date. Paul Smith Director Fire Academy POLICE ACADEMY The objective of the Police Academy is to develop and provide police training programs and ancillary staff development services to meet the needs of British Columbia's municipal police community, in accordance with the standards and rules established by the provincial Police Commission and the Police Act. Having accelerated the pace of training particularly at the recruit level during 1985 in preparation for Expo '86, there was a five month pause in training activity during the world exposition which resulted in a major drop in student training days from 16,684 to 9,739. Despite a marked reduction in recruit training, the overall reduction in the number of students attending the Academy only diminished by 159, from 2,886 in 1985 to 2, 727. This healthy attendance level was due to a significant increase in the demand for management and supervisory training. Advanced training programs increased accordingly from 31 in 1985/86, to 56, further reflecting a shifting emphasis to fulfill in-service training requirements. Peace Officers General and Basic Training Programs On April 18th, 67 recruits (classes 32 & 33) successfully completed 32 weeks of basic training, giving them the status of Qualified Municipal Constables within the province. The occasion was marked by a most colourful and impressive graduation ceremony staged at the Vancouver Agrodome, held in conjunction with the Vancouver Police Department's Centennial Show. The event took on the atmosphere and pageantry of a military tattoo complete with mass marching pipe and brass bands, a police choir, police dog and motorcycle displays. Attended by approximately 3,000 relatives, friends and general public, this became a major media event and public relations exercise for the municipal police community. While the Academy relies primarily on the Vancouver Police Department for recruit intake, there was a moratorium on hiring and training by that Department during Expo '86. Despite this, there were sufficient recruits from Victoria, New Westminster and Delta Police Departments to form Recruit Class #34 which commenced Block I training in September. Sixty-six members of Classes 28, 29 and 30 completed Block V training and thus successfully attained certified Municipal Constable status. Class 31 completed Block IV training. Class numbers were bolstered from 16 to 34 members by 18 Exemption candidates. These participants entered municipal policing on the strength of their previous service which allowed them to bypass Blocks I to III. Three constables with considerable previous police service and experience, who recently joined Oak Bay Police Department, were permitted to bypass the Basic and General Training Programs (Blocks I to V) by way of the Challenge Process. This series of exams, practical tests and simulated exercises is designed to ensure that successful candidates meet the standards set for Blocks I to V in order to become certified Municipal Constables. All three constables were successful in their challenge. Twenty-nine other constables with less previous service were admitted to municipal police departments after completing the Exemption process at the Academy, which allows th~m to challenge the Basic Training Program (Blocks I to III) to become certified Municipal Constables. They still have to complete Blocks IV and V training, which they have the opportunity to do within the first two years of service with their new police departments. Advanced Programs During April, the month prior to the commencement of Expo '86, special emphasis was placed on providing training programs to ensure that lower mainland forces and especially Vancouver Police Department members were well prepared to respond to hostage taking and handling barricaded persons incidents, both at the direct response and command levels. Ne- gotiators were also trained and those with former training were given a refresher program. A new course for experienced commanders was developed and conducted as a refresher program. Candidates felt that it is imperative that they receive such training every two or three years, and that such requalification should be recognized as a requisite requirement by those considered eligible for assignment to and retention in the handling of such crucial incidents. The pilot Police Managers program, the first two-week module of which was conducted in March, was followed by a series of field assignments involving the practical application of theories and skills. This course came to a most successful conclusion in April with a third one-week module back at the Academy, during which candidates presented and shared their assignments, submitted reports and were evaluated. The effectiveness of this split format approach to supervisory and management training has prompted a review of existing programs with a view to similar changes. This three week course for mid-management personnel, usually at the rank of Sergeant or Staff Sergeant, is designed to incorporate the same management content as the Canadian Police College Senior Police Administration Course. It is often difficult to get sufficient seats to accommodate the needs of the B. C. municipal police. The Academy course also serves as a refresher for those who took SPAC some years ago and have had no further management training. A second course commenced in March, 1987. The lull in training activity during Expo '86 provided an opportunity to develop the following new prograrns•Police Supervisors Program of five days duration aimed at those senior constables who assume acting supervisory responsibilities on a regular basis; •Police Supervisors Advanced Program based on a split format of five days for Part One and seven days for Part Two with field assignments during the intervening weeks. This program is designed for newly promoted, first level supervisors, persons transferred from detec- tive duties to field supervisory positions, and first level supervisors who have not received any such training for five years or more; •Civilian Supervisors Program-a five day course for those non-sworn police department staff who hold supervisory positions; •Civilian Personnel Program of three days' duration for those non-sworn police department staff whose primary function involves public contact; •Child Abuse Investigation Program for those officers Jikely to investigate such cases and for School Liaison Officers. Firearms qualification shoots were conducted for armoured car personnel employed by Loomis, Wells Fargo, Brinks, Armoured Transport of Canada, and Pacific Armoured Car. Provincial and Federal government geologists and B. C. Hydro personnel required to work in remote northern and wilderness areas were also tested to ensure their proficiency in handling firearms. Five Firearms Instructors courses were conducted primarily for municipal police personnel, although potential instructors from the Sheriffs Department, RCMP, C. N. Police and B. C. Rail Police were included in this program. A special four day training program was developed and taught to eighteen B. C. Transit Peace Officers responsible for policing the rapid transit, seabus and general bus services in the Lower Mainland. Among other contract programs was a two-week course developed and conducted for Immigration Officers in advanced investigations techniques. Contract training services were also provided SPCA staff in the use of firearms and to Conservation Officers in law, evidence and investigation techniques. During Expo '86, it was possible to cater to the smaller police departments and decentralize a number of programs to Vancouver Island. The remainder of the year saw the heaviest concentration ever on Advanced programs in order to catch up with demands. This produced a record 56 courses generating 5,973 student training days, an increase of 640 over the previous year. Research Development and Assessment A diagnostic centre was designed for use by police departments to assess the potential of communication operators to function at the level of civ.iHan supervisors within the Communications section. Using the Perfex Testing equipment, a mock communication radio console, tests of potential radio operators were conducted for Victoria Police Department. This service is now provided on request to any municipal police department. The second annual edition of the Roll Call Training Tape Catalogue was compiled and published in time for distribution at the Police Educators' Conference. This national police service has generated enthusiasm for the active exchange of video training materials between departments from coast to coast. New video productions this year include officer safety through the use of seat belts; bicycle theft investigation and a recruitment video, Policing as a Career. Twelve Assessment centres were conducted from recruit entry level through the promotional ranks to Deputy Chief level. Two Assessor training programs were provided to expand the pools of eligible assessors. Two Career Development programs were held on an evening basis for those seeking to determine their potential for promotion and develop an action plan for self improvement. Promotion exam services were also provided throughout the year. Job related testing as a criterion for employment selection has become a necessity and a crucial issue in an era of challenge under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. In response to this trend, and in an attempt to validate physical training, the Institutc's Physical Education Services Co-ordinator undertook a study of police officers' physical abilities for the Academy. This research involved collecting data from 217 randomly sclcctccl police officers who recorded physical activities and related incidents encountered during their tour of duty over a one month shift. The data provided over 9,000 descriptions of activities performed including 837 arrests and the type and level of resistance involved. The study resulted in the development of a Police Officers' Physical Abilities Test, standardized on the projected level of physical performance of adult male prisoners, who were the subject of a comparative study completed earlier for Correctional Officers and Sheriffs. This new job related test was approved by the Municipal Chiefs of Police at an Academy briefing in November, 1986 and is currently under consideration by the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police Training Committee for national endorsement. The B. C. Police Commission approved this test in April, 1987. General In keeping with the spirit of Expo '86, the Academy invited police trainers and educators from across Canada to attend the 13th annual Police Educators' Conference from May 12th to 16th at the Justice Institute. In addition to representation from all provinces, delegates came from as far afield as the National Police Staff College, BramshilJ, U. K. and San Diego Police Department. The conference focussed on the sharing and exchange of new ideas, programs and material in a very practical way aimed at providing an opportunity to take back tangible programs for immediate implementation. Topics ranged from mediation skills training required to deal with a wide variety of conflict resolution situations to such programs as the development of physical fitness standards and tests for police, guidelines for officer safety (survival), training for emergency response teams to enter aircraft and post incident trauma training. One of the most significant projects undertaken and completed during the year was Phase I of an automated record system. This data base contains approximately 2,050 entries and is programed to search and identify those police officers hired after April 1st, 1977 who, in accordance with the Training Rules laid down by the B. C. Police Commission, have not "qualified" (completed Blocks I, II, & III Basic Recruit Training) by the first anniversary of appointment; are not "certified" (completed Blocks IV & V or the Exemption or Challenge process) by the fourth anniversary of appointment; have less than six months between Blocks III & IV and IV & V; have more than 36 months between termination and reenlistment dates; and have extensions and expiration dates of such extensions. Phase II involves the entry of recruit training data, while Phase III will cover Advanced Training and post-secondary education. In order to maintain quality control of factory load service revolver ammunition, the Academy has undertaken to act as the central purchase and testing agent for municipal police departments. Tests have been completed and ammunition distributed. A new Provincial Firearms Qualification course was developed based on standard practice throughout many major forces across the country, which essentially reduces the 50 meter target to 25 meters, the maximum effective distance within which most handgun encounters occur. This modified course was approved by the B.C. Police Commission on April, 1987. Phil Crosby-Jones Director Police Academy I AUDITORS' REPORT To the Members of the Board of Justice Institute of British Columbia We have examined the balance sheet of the Justice Institute of British Columbia as at March 31, 1987 as set out in statement 1 and the statements of revenues, expenditures and fund balances, changes in fund balances-special purpose fund, program development fund and equity in fixed assets as set out in statements 2, 3, 4 and 5 for the year then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests and other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Institute as at March 31, 1987 and the results of its operations for the year then ended in accordance with the basis of accounting described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year. The budget information included in these financial statements has not been audited by us.

Fund accounting In order to ensure observance of limitations and restrictions placed on the use of the resources available to the Institute, such resources are classified for accounting and reporting purposes into funds according to the activities or objectives specified. Fixed assets Fixed assets purchased by the Justice Institute of British Columbia are stated at cost. Furniture, equipment and vehicles transferred from the Province of British Columbia are included at original cost to the Province with a corresponding credit to equity in fixed assets. Buildings reflect the cost of improvements and expansion of facilities owned by the B.C. Buildings Corporation. Seconded salaries The salaries and benefits of seconded Corrections, Court Services and Emergency Health Services Academies' staff are included in these financial statements as revenue and as a corresponding expense. Although these funds are issued directly from the Province of British Columbia to the individuals and do not flow through the bank account of the Justice Institute of British Columbia, they are considered part of the overall operations of the Institute. The seconded salaries (which were also added to the budgeted figures) are as follows: Corrections Academy $ 71,412 Court Services Academy 26,500 Emergency Health Services Academy 200,000 $297,912 Debenture interest Debenture interest is recorded on a cash basis and accordingly no provision is made in the accounts for accrued interest.

The aggregate rental payable to the expiry date amounts to $296,100. 3.
