Dear Bill,

As part of the ACCC MAKING CANADA PRODUCTIVE project, may I encourage
your institution to prepare case studies now for submission in early 1987. Again this
year we hope to have the Minister of Employment and Immigration present the
awards at a special ACCC Conference '87 luncheon on June 4th.

We are hoping for a similar repeat of the successful program we did last year, where
many useful examples of college/employers collaboration were documented and
presented. Attached is an outline of an amended format which places more emphasis
on curriculum and alternate delivery methods.

Our achievements in serving industry and others have been Significant. However, as
we learned last year through the MAKING CANADA PRODUCTIVE Workshops, we do
not talk enough about notable activities. Again, please document some interesting
cases and forward these to the ACCC Secretariat. Collectively your examples with
those of others deliver a powerful message about Canada's colleges and institutes.

Sincerely,

Are ee

Yves Sanssouci
President
