26. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 Project to Program? Membership Fee Chronology Membership Fee Chronology Discussion Discussion

27. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 October 2009 In response to a 10% two year drop in CAIS boarding enrolment, the CBP was launched as a two year pilot. Cost $5000/school/year. The CAIS board agreed to support the CBP with the understanding that: - The vast majority of schools would participate - The CBP would be national in scope

28. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 September 2011 CBP moved from two year pilot to two year project. A two tiered funding model was introduced. Basic fee: $4500, Premium fee: the equivalent of each individual school’s one boarding fee Fee range from $ 4,500 to $ 49,265. Of the 26, 18 premium members, 8 basic

29. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 September 2012 CBP shifted to a single tier “progressive” fee model, based on the size of each school’s boarding enrolment. Fee range from $ 5,250 to $ 37,344, producing $ 614,687 annual revenue.

30. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 September 2013 CBP “progressive” fee model proposed again. Assuming there remains a collective enthusiasm to continue the project, a key question emerges: How important is the long term sustainability of the CBP for CAIS and its member boarding schools?

31. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 Status Quo (membership optional) Pro Schools maintain autonomy with their participation CBP may be more accountable to membership to demonstrate value

32. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 Status Quo (membership optional) Con Lack of certainty for planning Compromise of goodwill amongst membership. Non participating schools derive benefit in spite of sanctions (removal from CBP website, no data, no recruitment or agent promotion)

33. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 Con Sustainability may be compromised by prospect of: Less schools participating Less funding to deliver mandate Higher costs borne by less participants The project no longer compromises sufficient majority of CAIS boarding schools with a truly national scope Quantity and Quality of CAIS boarding school students may be compromised by prospect of less funding available.

34. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 Project to Program (membership compulsory for all CAIS boarding schools) Pro Highly sustainable (planning more secure, revenue dependable, a longer term view and commitment) CAIS brand, reputation, quality of students enhanced for all CAIS boarding schools Goodwill enhanced amongst supportive members of the project. No longer would non fee paying CAIS members schools benefit.

35. CAIS BOARDING IN CANADA 2012 Project to Program (membership compulsory for all CAIS boarding schools) Con Loss of autonomy with participation CBP may become less accountable to membership to demonstrate value Goodwill compromised amongst less supportive members of the project Potential loss of CAIS school membership (All CAIS boarding schools would pay fee to remain in CAIS)
