Indigenous Pathways to Address Canada’s Challenges
October 27 - 29, 2024
Join us for this year’s National Indigenous Education Symposium, a two-and-a-half-day event bringing together leaders from post-secondary education, policy and industry to explore the importance of integrating Indigenous perspectives, knowledge, and practices into solutions for Canada’s most pressing issues. Engage in collaborative discussions and innovative practices that enhance the well-being and success of Indigenous learners.
We look forward to welcoming you! Pjila’si!
What to expect
Canada’s colleges and institutes are proud to be the primary postsecondary education providers for Indigenous learners. For the second consecutive year, Colleges and Institutes Canada (CICan) and the Indigenous Institutes Consortium (ICC) will co-host the event and convene a diverse group of experts, advocates, and supporters in Indigenous and postsecondary education from across Turtle Island. We’ll explore how leaders in Indigenous education can bridge skills gaps and effectively engage Indigenous learners and their knowledge to address Canada’s most pressing challenges. Attendees will also reflect on a unified vision for promoting, protecting, and valuing Indigenous culture, knowledge, and history throughout postsecondary education.
