INDUSTRY
OUTREACH
Industry outreach continued to be an effective way of engaging with
the performing arts and motion picture communities throughout 2017.
2017 was a year of continued progress on all fronts.
From an epic 3300km road trip into the BC interior to
invitations to four separate conferences in multiple
disciplines including Theatre BC’s mainstage
event in Vernon, the ABCDE (drama teachers)
conference, CITT/ICTS Conference in St John New
Brunswick, all with great turn out and feedback.
We also had increased interest in the Performing
Arts Safety Awareness workshop (72 certificates)
and two performing arts groups taking the Joint
Health and Safety Committee Fundamentals
Training.

PERFORMING ARTS, VENUES
AND EVENTS OUTREACH
But our greatest milestone was three post-
secondary programs adding the Performing Arts
Safety Awareness workshop to their curriculum!
Capilano University, Douglas College and Simon
Fraser University all signed up to add safety to their
programs.
