The Makigiaqta Inuit Training Corporation Board of Directors has approved $12M in funding to support Nunavut Inuit who are pursuing training and postsecondary education. A new policy will direct $5M to initiatives that support Inuit student academic success. The board also approved $1M for the Makigiaqta Post-Secondary Education Funding Program, which boosts engagement, funding, and support for Inuit individuals who have been accepted into postsecondary training. “It is inspiring to see so many Inuit students advancing their knowledge and skills in post-secondary institutions, and I am so pleased that we are able to support them in reaching their goals,” said NTI President and Makigiaqta Chair Aluki Kotierk.
