2015 ENROLMENT REPORT
Private Career Training
Institutions Agency
PCTIA
Reporting period:
Nov 1, 2014 to Oct 31, 2015
Overview: Enrolment
Private career training institutions provide career focused training at the certificate and diploma level.
Along with a wide variety of programs, private institutions offer flexible timetables and learning
schedules, small teacher to student ratios, short duration programs, and multiple intakes throughout the
year. This increases access to education for a wide range of adults interested in additional training.
The Private Career Training Institutions Agency’s (PCTIA) mandate is to provide student protection and
enforce basic education and quality standards.
A total of 57,083 students were enrolled in 327 registered private training institutions in British Columbia
during 2014-15. Of the 327 institutions registered with the PCTIA, 178 were also PCTIA accredited.
From November 1, 2014 to October 31, 2015, the private training sector contributed more than $289.5
million in tuition revenue to the BC economy. This amount was self-reported amongst the 327 institutions
in British Columbia.
During the same period the previous year (2013-2014), tuition revenue reported was approximately $275
million from 323 registered private career training institutions.
The number of registered institutions in the province has increased since last year’s report, from 323 to
327. The number of students has also increased 10% from 51,316 in 2013/14 to 57,083 in 2014/15.
In February 2014, the Education Quality Assurance (EQA) standard for post- secondary institutions and
language schools that wish to host international students on study permits was publicly announced by the
BC government. Language schools required EQA designation, which included the new requirements for
PCTIA registration and accreditation in order to acquire access to the federal government’s International
Student Program (ISP) Designated Learning Institution List (DLI).
The slight increase in PCTIA’s numbers of registered institutions from last year’s totals can be attributed,
in part, to this EQA standard. The deadline to achieve EQA was December 31, 2015 which means many
language schools that have become PCTIA registered and accredited may have done so after this
enrolment report period ( 2014/15) and as such will be reflected in the next reporting period.

Student Training Completion Fund
Under the Private Career Training Institutions Act, PCTIA administers the Student Training Completion
Fund (STCF). The STCF is funded through contributions from registered institutions based on a percentage
of their collected tuition and protects students’ unearned tuition in the case of the closure of an
institution.
For the 12 month period ending March 31, 2015, the total amount approved by the Public Administrator
for payment out of the STCF for student claims resulting from institution closures was $135,289 1.
A student complaint process exists where claims may also be made against the fund when a student is
found to have been misled by an institution. The STCF pays out the claim to the student and recovers the
amount from the institution.
For the 12 month period ending March 31, 2015, the total approved by the Public Administrator for
payment to students successful in complaints against institutions was $21,103 2.
The balance of the fund at March 31, 2015, was $15,636,317.
1
There were no institution closures with approved STCF claims in the 2014/15 fiscal year; therefore the total amount approved by the Public
Administrator for payment out of the STCF for student claims was substantially lower than the previous fiscal year. The $135,289 represents claims that
were submitted in the 2013/14 fiscal year but were approved in 2014/15.
2
In the previous fiscal year there were significantly more student complaints than in 2014/15. Therefore the total approved by the Public Administrator
for payment to students successful in complaints against institutions was much less.

Data period: Nov 1, 2014 - Oct 31, 2015
NOTE: The accredited institutions on the right are a subset of all registered institutions
An institution must be registered for one year before applying for accreditation. Registration means an
institution agrees to meet basic education standards as set by the Private Career Training Institutions Act.
Some institutions voluntarily choose to become accredited. By meeting additional quality standards over
and above registration requirements, accredited institutions are eligible to apply to the Ministry of
Advanced Education for StudentAid BC and/or Education Quality Assurance (EQA) designation.
Furthermore, EQA designation is now the gateway to the federal government’s DLI list and access to
international students.
As institutions must be registered before becoming accredited, this table reflects the accredited
institutions as a subset of the registered totals. More than half (178) of the 327 institutions in 2014-2015
were accredited. At enrolment year end, there were four more institutions operating than in the previous
year.

Status changes for registered institutions are defined as follows:
•
•
•
•
‘Closures’ refers to an institution that closed during the enrolment period.
‘Cancellation/Revoked’ refers to institutions closed by PCTIA.
‘Deregulated’ refers to an institution which continues to operate but is no longer required to be
registered with PCTIA. This occurs when the programs they offer no longer fall under the definition
contained in the Private Career Training Institutions Act.
‘Net Gain/Loss’ refers to the balance of the total closures, less the number of new registrations.
3
The discrepancy in net/gain for the 2014/15 enrolment period is a result of one institution amalgamating with another. The amalgamation is not
reflected in the above chart.

Table 4: Enrolment totals and accredited status 2011 - 2015
Accredited institutions are larger, on average, than non-accredited institutions. Accreditation is one of the
criteria for institutions wishing to apply for a StudentAid BC or the EQA designation. This encourages
institutions to pursue accreditation with PCTIA. Accreditation is particularly valuable to those institutions
recruiting internationally as, through EQA designation, accredited institutions are able to gain access to
the federal government’s Designated Learning Institution (DLI) list.

Table 5: Estimated sector tuition revenue 2011 - 2015
Estimated tuition revenue considers tuition fees only and does not include additional program related
fees for materials. Totals reflect the amounts self-reported by institutions that were registered with the
PCTIA at the end of the reporting period.
This number increased in 2015 due to the 10% increase in the number of student enrolments and
because 92 more programs were offered by private post secondary institutions than last year.
The estimated tuition revenue for 2014/15 was calculated by using the actual tuition revenue reported by
institutions during the data period, excluding those institutions that closed during that period and did not
provide enrolment numbers.

Enrolment refers to the number of students who register and begin a program.
Attrition is the number of students who begin a program but do not finish.
Graduates are students who complete their program of study and are awarded a graduation
credential.
Variations in data may result from the timing of reporting. Due to the nature of continuous intake in
many of the private institutions, it may appear an institution graduated more students than registered (i.e.
the 2015 enrolment numbers consist of all students entering the system in that year, and the 2015
graduate numbers represent a different set of students–those who have graduated in the same time
period).

Table 9: Number of student enrolments by region 2011 - 2015
PCTIA records the geographic region of each registered institution according to the regional definitions
recommended in the Ministry of Advanced Education’s Campus 2020: Thinking Ahead report.
For the first time in 2014, institutions were able to report their program enrolments by location and we
now have a more accurate representation of private career training enrolments across the province. Prior
to this reporting period, all of an institution’s enrolments were reported to its main location.
The differing patterns between 2013/14 and 2014/15 reporting periods depicted on this chart are likely
a continuing representation of the changes in reporting requirements that began in 2013/14. As new
data became available in 2014/15, a more accurate connection between programs and the locations in
which they were offered was established.

Table 10: Regional enrolment data of registered and accredited institutions including estimated tuition revenue
Programs from accredited institutions are, on average, 32 weeks long while programs from registered
institutions are, on average, 26 weeks long. Accredited institutions are more likely to have multi-year
programs. These factors may contribute to higher attrition rates at accredited institutions.
NOTE: In cases where an institution has multiple locations, all financial data is attributed to the
institution’s ‘main’ location (which tends to be in the Lower Mainland).

The percentage of enrolments is calculated at the number of students enrolled in a region, divided by the total number of students enrolled at
registered and accredited institutions. This calculation differs from the Regional Overview table published in the 2013/14 Enrolment report where the
percentage of enrolments was calculated as student attrition, divided by the total number of students enrolled at registered and accredited institutions.

career training programs at accredited institutions, by region 7

This was the second year that institutions reported on job placement rates by location. The decline in job placement rates in Vancouver and Vancouver
Island is likely a reflection of the change to reporting requirements by location. The shift in employment statistics aligns with the shift in regional
enrolments.
6
Refer to above footnote.
7
Table 12 is a restatement of “Table 11: Summary of employment outcomes by region for accredited institutions” published in the PCTIA 2014 Enrolment
Report. Data from short-duration, non-career training and ESL program graduates was erroneously included in Table 11 in the 2014 Report, and has now
been removed and revised totals restated in Table 12.
13
Accredited institutions are required to report employment outcomes to the Agency. This data is collected
six months after graduation. In previous years, PCTIA measured the numbers of full time and part time
job placements as separate categories, however new bylaws came into force on October 12, 2012
requiring institutions to report only on ‘Training Related Placements’ which encompasses both full and
part time training related placements.
‘Unknown’ refers to the category used when no contact was made with the student.
There are several factors which make collecting this data difficult for institutions: the transient nature of
some students and industries; the resources needed for an institution to locate a student six months after
graduation; and the loss of contact with international students once they graduate.
*Note: As job placement data is made available six months after graduation, it does not necessarily
represent total reported graduates of the same time period. For example, if a student graduates from a
program towards the end of the reporting period, the student’s job placement data will not be made
available until six months after graduation. Therefore, that student’s job placement data will not be
reflected until the following reporting period. As a result, the placement percentages will not necessarily
total to 100% of graduates.

Variations in data may result from the timing of reporting. Due to the nature of continuous intake in many of the private institutions, it may appear an
institution graduated a different number of students than registered. I.e. The 2015 enrolment numbers consist of all students entering the system in that
year, and the 2015 graduate numbers represent a different set of students, those who have graduated in the same time period.
