Curriculum Validation-Program Renewal Report

Introduction
The Aviation Management Program (AM) is a two-year diploma program with a
September entry date. The program combines business management and flight training
designed to prepare graduates for entry into an aviation career. The management
component of the program, delivered by RRC, prepares students for the business
elements of the aviation industry through a blend of courses that includes
communications, social sciences, computer applications, marketing, human resources,
and accounting. In 2009, the Dean and Chair requested a Curriculum Validation-
Program Renewal to address changes in the aviation management field since the
program was first developed and offered in 2000. The intent of the Curriculum
Validation process is to analyze the status of the program and to chart a course for
program renewal. The process uses a structured format identifying the current college
expectations, a description and vision for a desired future state, and a 5-year plan for
creating the desired future state.

Curriculum Validation Deliverables:

The Aviation Management Program Curriculum Validation process involved 7

interrelated deliverables:

1. Environmental Scan and Analysis of the key findings of similar programs across
Canada.
2. Industry Occupational Analysis (DACUM)
3. Graduate Skills and Abilities Chart

Outcomes from the Deliverables:

1. Environmental Scan and Key Findings

The Environmental Scan provides the faculty and chair with information about similar
programs that are offered in Colleges and Universities locally and nationally. The
Curriculum Validation facilitator gathered information on similar programs and trends
influencing their development and direction. The information was gathered by the
Curriculum Validation Facilitator through web sites, email and telephone contact. The
scan gathered information under the following categories:
• Name of institution, location, contact person
• Size of program
• Credential offered
• Program features
• Curriculum Model
• Curriculum Content
• Student Assessment
• Current and Coming Challenges
• Curriculum Renewal
• Partnerships

For the Aviation Management Program Curriculum Validation – Program Renewal,

nine programs were scanned. They included:

Key findings from the Environmental Scan
Most Common Credential Awarded

Seven of the nine programs provide a 2 year diploma. Georgian College offers an
advanced diploma and Seneca College provides an applied degree. In addition to the
diploma, Red Deer College offers a concurrent management certificate and
University of the Fraser Valley has certificate and degree programs in aviation as well
as the diploma.

Partnership Arrangements

The majority of programs partner with one or more flight training schools to deliver
the pilot training. Some of those schools provide ground school courses at the Flight
Training Unit but most offer them at the academic institution. Georgian college has
partnership agreements with Embry Riddle University in Florida, Loughbrough
University in UK, and Griffiths University in Australia. Many of the schools are
members of the Air Transport Association of Canada (ATAC). Some are members of
the Canadian Association of Aviation Colleges (CAAC).

Prerequisite Skills/Credential Requirements

All of the nine scanned programs had the same basic requirements for entrance into
their program. All required high school diplomas with English and a high level of Math.
Two of the programs also required Physics while four others recommended Physics.
One institution also recommended accounting and computer experience. All but one
of the programs requires a Transport Canada Category 1 medical certificate (a non-
flight program).

Four of the programs require students to have a Private Pilot’s license or provide an
opportunity to get that license upon entry into the program. Mount Royal University
has an interview as an entrance requirement and Seneca College does admission
testing.

Experiential Component

Only two of the programs have an experiential component to the program, Seneca
College (1 - 14 week term, students have a choice of the summer term after 2nd year
or the summer term after 3rd year) and Georgian College (3 separate 14 week work
terms). Other schools will help students with part time or summer employment but do
not have co-op or internship work terms. Many of the programs feature a wilderness
survival course as does RRC’s.

4
Delivery Features

Delivery of the academic portion of the programs is done at the academic institution.
Conestoga College delivers three days per week in the first year and 2 days in the
second year to allow students the opportunity for more flight training options. This is
similar to the RRC program. Confederation College has 2 full days of classes and 3
half days.

The flight training schools deliver their program adhering to Transport Canada
standards but go beyond those requirements in their training by making sure students
are equipped to meet the challenges of being a pilot. Many schools have their own
training curriculum to get students ready for their pilots’ licenses and ratings.

Unique content (courses)

Course content is dependent upon whether the program is business or science

oriented. Four of the programs are business diplomas, three are science diplomas,
and two are 90% aviation courses.

Conestoga College – Electrical Fundamentals, World Geography, Foundations of

Writing, Student Success for Higher Learning

Georgian College – Airport Management, Cargo Customs and Excise, Airline

Management, Government and Aviation, Sociology, Statistics

Mount Royal College – Calculus

Selkirk College – College Composition

Seneca College – Electricity Fundamentals, Fundamentals of Electronics, Chemistry,

Thermodynamics, Flight Propulsion, Introductory French, Applied Research
Methodology, Airport Planning

University of the Fraser Valley – Fitness courses, Professional Report Writing

National Accreditation Body

The aviation programs are not nationally accredited but several colleges belong to a
number of associations. The four main ones are the Air Transportation Association of
Canada, Association of Canadian Community Colleges, Canadian Association of
Aviation Colleges, Canadian Owners and Pilots Association. Red River College
belongs to the Association of Canadian Community Colleges. We will be looking into
membership of Air Transportation Association of Canada and Canadian Association
of Aviation Colleges.

5
Challenges

• A variety of challenges identified by program contacts include: Rising costs for the
students
• Economic recession
• Above two reasons are limiting enrolment in the program
• Availability of pilot jobs is decreasing, although the industry experiences peaks and
valleys depending on the hiring practices of the two major airlines, Air Canada and
West Jet
• Changing course curriculum to meet the changes in the industry
• Filling student enrolment quotas
• Poor quality of student applicants leading to attrition in the program
• Rising operating costs for flight training units, especially for the colleges that own
their own fleet of airplanes and employ flight training instructors
• Students losing their medical certificate during the program

Other Information

Graduation rates in most programs range from 50% - 100% at the end of the program.
Many programs have a summer term where students spend a majority of the summer
flying to increase their required hours and to have an opportunity to complete their
commercial license. At present, RRC’s graduation rate is very minimal (less than 10%)
although the prospects are increasing as the new group of students seems more
focused and more academically motivated than previous groups.

Most programs deliver academic courses, including ground school, at the educational
institution. Some deliver ground school and other aviation courses at the flight training
school. Most programs have dedicated flight instructors on staff due to the flight portion
being paid directly to the educational institution. In other programs, flight instructors are
contracted by the college. This is the case for the RRC program.

2. Industry Occupational Analysis (DACUM) Chart
The Industry Occupational Analysis using the DACUM process is a familiar component
of the curriculum development process at Red River College and provides the program
with a description of regional occupational needs. Included in the process is the
identification of emerging and retiring industry trends.

Craig Edwards and Sandra Sukhan facilitated the Aviation Management Program
DACUM process on, December 3rd and 10th, 2009. Industry practitioners were asked to
identify the major competencies and related skills required by entry-level workers in the
aviation management field. The seven individuals who took part in this exercise
represented a cross section of managers from the Manitoba aviation industry. The
major change in the occupational analysis since the program was first developed in
2000 was the non inclusion of the competency to “fly a plane”. The DACUM participants
discussed this competency at length and the majority determined that it was a desirable,
but not absolutely necessary competency for aviation managers.

The resulting Aviation Management Program DACUM identified the following emerging
and retiring trends:

Emerging Industry Trends:

• new technology –i.e. digital, glass cockpit, full motion simulators
• manager experience - aircraft construction more important than field experience
• increasing regulations
• safety management systems (SMS)
• crisis management
• quality assurance - "out of box thinking" - efficiencies
• need for structure - standard procedure
• decision making - analytical thinking
• need for succession planning - various position
• self-marketing business
• self-regulation
• micro management in certain areas by Transport Canada
• work smarter - synthesizing information
• environmental impact of industry

Retiring industry trends:

• steam gauges
• decreased oversight from Transport Canada
• rote thinking (following rule book)
• seat-of-the-pants (pioneering) approach
• individual thinking and decision-making
• hierarchy of operations (fewer middle managers)
• fewer "hands-on" skills

Please see the full DACUM chart in Appendix B.

3. Graduate Skills and Abilities Chart
The Curriculum Validation Facilitator (CVF) organized the first of three workshops with
program faculty, Chair, and Academic Coordinator to review the expectations of industry
represented in the DACUM. Craig Edwards, PCD Curriculum Consultant, facilitated this
workshop on Tuesday, February 16, 2010, which provided a rare opportunity for the
faculty to review the program in its entirety rather than the usual focus on only the
specific courses taught. Through a detailed review of each competency and related
skills and abilities identified by industry representatives in the DACUM, the faculty
determined realistic learning goals for their program graduates considering the length of
the program and resources available. The faculty agreed that all the DACUM
competencies and related skills were important for success, but adjusted some of the
skill ratings too considering the two-year time frame of the program. The outcome of this
workshop is a composite chart that identifies the skills and abilities necessary for
success as an Aviation Management graduate. The chart is the result of:
1) a thorough review of the competencies identified in the Industry Occupational
Analysis (DACUM) Chart
2) the teaching faculty’s assessment of what would constitute realistic learning
expectations within the program timeframe
3) the cross-referencing of the DACUM competencies with the College Wide
Learning Outcomes (soft skills)

This chart serves as the focus for curriculum renewal and the basis for the development
of the program’s Graduate Profile. Please see the full chart in Appendix C.

4. Graduate Profile
At the second faculty workshop, on Friday, February 19, 2010, the faculty developed a
profile of their program graduates through the use of the Graduate Skills and Abilities
Chart.

A Graduate Profile is a set of outcome statements that describe the essential and
enduring knowledge, skills, and abilities expected by a graduate of a program. The
Graduate Profile provides the focus for program and course revision to ensure that all
learning outcomes and assessments are relevant to the expected learning of students in
the program. The Graduate Profile also provides the basis for Recognition for Prior
Learning (RPL) at the program level. Please see the detailed Graduate Profile in
Appendix D.

5. Program Renewal Vision and Goals
Craig Edwards, PCD Curriculum Consultant facilitated the third and final workshop with
the Aviation Management faculty on Thursday, May 6, 2010. This workshop included
the Program Chair, the Academic Coordinator, and a couple of the Advisory Committee.
The participants were encouraged to think “outside the box” and brainstormed ideas of
what their program would look like in 5 years.

The vision and six goals identified at this session are articulated in the graphic below
including dates for the duration of each goal. Please see the full set of Goals and
related Action Items in Appendix E.

6. 5-Year Program Renewal Plan
The program renewal plan is the result of translating the preceding five deliverables into
a coherent plan for the renewal of the program. After reviewing the Vision, Goals, and
Action items, the Academic Coordinator and Curriculum Validation Facilitator met with
the Curriculum Consultant to confirm the wording and identify the sequence of the goals
and the related action items within the 5-Year Renewal Plan. The goals and action
items are included below. Please see the detailed chart for the Renewal Plan sequence
