The Certificate in Indigenous Leadership, Innovation & Management program will support Indigenous community members in rural and remote locations who have been laid off due to COVID-19, receiving social assistance, and/or are at high risk of leaving organizations or businesses due to lack of promotion to management roles.
The program approach is based on Indigenous knowledge and pedagogy. It will also include partnerships with local businesses to create pathways for learners and develop networking opportunities
