:'''The curriculum discussions for the CNS/CTY programs have drawn attention to several key areas:'''<br>:*'''Create an identical skill base for both CNS and CTY programs for the first four semesters.'''
::Students in the CTY program (after completing co-op) sometimes want to graduate with CNS and fail to see the point of taking an additional 2 semesters. The problem is that when students are enrolled in the CTY program, the CTY program requires them to complete the 6 semesters. A number of students will accept employment without having completed the CTY diploma certificate (this affects the perception of student success and retention). Creating an identical skill base for both CNS and CTY programs will offer employers with a minimum level of employee competence and provide a conduit for students to "upgrade" to CTY.
