Sault to launch Indigenous Foundations Program

Sault College will offer a one-year Biidaaban – Indigenous Foundations certificate program beginning in Fall 2025. Indigenous and non-Indigenous students who enrol in the program will develop their math, writing, and learning skills; learn to apply Indigenous values, knowledge, and world views; and explore courses from a variety of areas. The program offers a foundational experience to students to ensure that they are ready to pursue further education. “This program is not only a step towards the ongoing responsibility to reconciliation, but this one-year certificate also acknowledges the unique and significant contribution Indigenous ways of knowing and cultural teachings support learners,” said Sault Professor Dr Michelle Sayers.
