Sprott Shaw College (SSC) is a private Canadian career training institution, headquartered in British Columbia.〔"Private Career Training Institutions Act", SBC 2003, c.79〕 Over the years, Sprott Shaw has expanded its courses to offer programs in health care, tourism, hospitality, business, administrative, and international studies. ==History== When Robert James Sprott became partners with William Henry Shaw of Shaw Colleges in 1903, they opened the first Sprott-Shaw school, called ''Vancouver Business Institute''. Their development plan included four schools in Vancouver, one in Nanaimo and one in Victoria. In 1913, Robert James Sprott and James Beatty opened Sprott-Shaw College in Victoria, which has been in continuous operation since its opening. The college survived economic recessions, two World Wars and the Great Depression. Sprott Shaw designed programs to retrain military personnel after World War II. The training included Morse Code, radio broadcasting and aviation. The college established a broadcast station for the school with a signal being picked up all the way in Hawaii. The station was known as ''CKMO'', which is now CFTE. Broadcasters Jack Cullen and Ernie Rose were graduates of the school. Many well-known students including world-renowned artist Emily Carr spent time with Sprott Shaw. In 1964, Ernie Henderson of ''Henderson Colleges'' bought Sprott Shaw and was the owner until his death in 1974. The Victoria school was then bought by Commander Robert N.G. Smith, who operated it until 1988 when Terry Hackett purchased the school. In 1991, the school was taken over by Dean and Sherri Duperron. Dean Duperron successfully grew the school from one small campus in Victoria to one of the largest career colleges in British Columbia. The college has grown to 20 locations across the province of British Columbia. Dean Duperron was responsible for many of Sprott-Shaw's innovative programs, such as the Class Act Canada Initiative.〔(Class Act Canada ). Internationalscholarships.ca.

In 2013, Sprott Shaw Degree College was renamed Acsenda School of Management. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sprott Shaw College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
