Generation Students Clause Samples
The 'Generation Students' clause defines which students are considered part of a specific cohort or group for the purposes of the agreement. Typically, this clause outlines the criteria or timeframes that determine student inclusion, such as enrollment dates, program start years, or other relevant identifiers. By clearly specifying which students are covered, the clause ensures that both parties understand the scope of obligations, benefits, or services that apply, thereby preventing misunderstandings and disputes about eligibility.
Generation Students. In 2012-13, 17% of McMaster students were first generation learners. McMaster offers bursaries and special outreach programs that support the participation of at risk youth. The McMaster Venture Camps program provides engineering and science camps and workshops to primary and secondary school students.
Generation Students. During the fall of 2013, La Cité completed its initiative to identify first generation students enrolled in their first year with the help of an early detection questionnaire. This questionnaire assesses twenty risk factors under four major themes: program choice and course integration, social integration, financial difficulties, and family and personal problems. Of the 2,908 students enrolled in their first year in September 2013, 922 were identified as first generation students. In the fall of 2012, this number was 825. In the wake of the results of the early detection questionnaire, La Cité made 417 referrals to assistance programs. According to this questionnaire, the main challenges faced by first generation students are financial assistance needs (93), the need for improved study techniques (90), difficulties integrating into a postsecondary environment (79), personal problems (83), and job hunting (56). In addition, first generation students received 20,300 instances of feedback from their teachers through the SAVOIR system, a 360-degree appraisal system. Over the past few years, La Cité has boosted its international student capacity by focusing on two areas: • Increased engagement through special projects with other countries, described in section 1. Employment, innovation and economic development; • The recruitment of international students. The College has increased its number of international students from 64 in 2009-10 to 112 in 2013-14. Persons with disabilities voluntarily identify themselves to La Cité’s special needs service office. The key strategies implemented by the College to support this clientele include: • The regular revision of the adaptation protocols for students with special needs and the protocols for Quebec and American Sign Language interpreters (LSQ and ASL); • Presentations of available services for students and potential students and their parents during open house event to raise awareness about the benefits of early self-identification; • Presentations for school boards and local high school guidance counsellors. Approximately 50% of full-time students do not arrive directly from secondary school. Each year, the College organizes customized workshops for adults returning to school and participates in corporate activities that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ the academic success of this “non-direct” clientele.

Generation Students. In the space below, please provide examples of promising practices that Durham used in 2009-10 to develop and maintain results for First Generation students. This project was comprised of two initiatives: an Integrated Approach to First Generation Academic Success and a First Generation Student Coordinator. Together, they offered first‐year first generation students seminars, programming and activities to support their academic and social transition to postsecondary education. This was done by working collaboratively with many campus partners.
Generation Students. Durham College’s supports for First Generation (FG) students are developed utilizing an evidence‐based model. Starting with a needs assessment from focus groups conducted with FG students, questionnaires and research, a combination of academic support modules and a personal support system was put into place. Students were initially contacted through orientation packages, early registration and self‐identification, institutional registration and community recruitment. First Generation students were encouraged to review the website, and meet with the FG Coordinator to access services. A “Passport to Academic Success” was created by the Student Academic Learning Services to provide FG students with key study skills, technology training, and subject specific supports to maximize learning within the first semester. First Generation students face unique challenges and greater personal stress related to family concerns, finances and jobs. To respond directly, Durham College worked collaboratively with campus partners to provide integrated, accessible, flexible and tailored supports to FG students. Students were introduced to academic culture and practices in peer sessions, counselling supports, academic workshops and on‐ line supports which combined, provided timed targeted programming. As a new member of the Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation (CONII), Durham College spent the latter part of 2009‐10 establishing an applied research office focusing on opportunities for students to participate in research projects with industry partners. A number of projects were lined up by the end of the year, with students participating in 2010‐11.
