A message from the BCITRA President

The BCITRA celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2024. It’s also the year in which BCIT celebrates its 60th anniversary.

BCITRA President

BCITRA is committed to helping you, the retiree, keep in touch with your fellow members and the BCIT community. We also strive to stay engaged with the Institute and support its students.  One of our main goals is to provide BCITRA Bursary awards to deserving students as they pursue their education at BCIT. Your contributions to the Endowment Fund support current and future students, so please consider making a donation in 2024.

The BCITRA is an affiliate member of the College Pension Plan Retirees (CPPR) Association whose sole purpose is to ensure the retiree pension and benefits are maintained and grow at an appropriate rate. At this time, I am also a Director of the CPPR.

We had our first luncheon since COVID on December 1, 2023.  It was well-attended. We look forward to more Me-N- Eds luncheons in 2024. Stay tuned for dates.

The Board meets on the third Monday of each month (except for July, August, and December) in Room 112 on the Royal Oak Campus. We invite you to contribute ideas and suggestions whether they be in person or via email.

Gordon Farrell
President, BCITRA
