NITEP, the Indigenous Teacher Education Program in the Faculty of Education at UBC, has celebrated graduating over 400 educators in its 44 years of existence. Part of NITEP’s success can be credited to its devotion to community-based programming, which allows students to complete the majority of their education in their home communities. The program has worked with over 20 communities in British Columbia, including field centres in such locations as Vancouver, Lillooet, Fraser Valley, the Cariboo (Williams Lake/Quesnel), Bella Coola, Campbell River, and Hazelton. NITEP aims to increase the number of Indigenous educators in both British Columbia and Canada with the broader goal of supporting Indigenous learners and communities in achieving educational parity with non-Indigenous learners.

Operating on 420 acres of ecological reserve space in Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish, BC) territory, Cheakamus Centre is an environmental education facility that provides experiential outdoor and land-based education programs to Grades 3-12 students from across the Sea-to-Sky, Metro Vancouver and Southern British Columbia regions. Established in 1969, originally as the North Vancouver Outdoor School, the Centre is owned by the North Vancouver School District, and as such, ties programming to the BC curriculum. Cheakamus Centre offers a variety of Indigenous Cultural Programs that are designed to “share the beauty, depth and vibrancy of Skwxwú7mesh First Nation culture in fun, interactive and engaging ways.” Programs include both one day, and overnight programming. Most notably, the Centre’s ‘Skw’une-was’ program is a provincially recognized 2 day program for Grade 3 students which immerses learners in traditional Skwxwú7mesh culture and provides cultural teaching experiences in connection with natural spaces. All programs are designed and delivered in conjunction with themes of ‘Seasonality,’ ‘Respect,’ and ‘Sharing’ in mind, as well as the First People’s Principles of Learning.

The Executive MBA in Indigenous Business and Leadership in the Beedie School of Business at Simon Fraser University has been in existence for five years. The program is intended for mature leaders with at least 10 years of experience in business or leadership. It is “designed to bring skills that have not been available for Indigenous leaders, to Indigenous leaders.” The program aims to reflect the cultural values and identities of Indigenous peoples in its design and delivery while also encouraging students to think about what the goals and practices of Indigenous business should be – rather than looking at how everyday business can be transferred to the practices of Indigenous people and communities. The program is also designed to promote the integration of Indigenous knowledge into ways of conducting business, while also being responsive to the context in which Indigenous people are living. Through promoting collaboration between students, the program aims to support the “building of a network of Indigenous leaders who have a background in business and in performing business in Indigenous contexts.”
