ABSTRACT

This chapter places management education and training into the wider social context of Canada in the five decades after World War II. A managerial class existed in Canada prior to 1945, and it became much more developed as subsequent decades progressed and important institutions sought to enhance it. British Columbia organized Vancouver Community College (VCC) in such a way that it provided a pathway to university for students to go further in higher education, but it also offered a path that led directly to the job market. Management and supervisory training became a key area for colleges and universities and, in the case of the colleges, continuing education courses and programs were sources of profit. Management in Canada involved professional schools, many different academic journals, and university-based professional education. There were courses on business law, but HEC was the only school to offer a course on the legal environment in which managers functioned.
