Kenjgewin Teg will launch its first program accredited by the Indigenous Advanced Education and Skills Council (IAESC) in September 2026. The Indigenous Studies Program – Certificate II is a one-year certificate that ladders into the institution’s 3-year Indigenous Studies Bachelor of Arts degree. It introduces learners to the Anishinaabemowin language, Indigenous governance, and foundational knowledge of Indigenous peoples and cultures. “This certificate is an exciting pathway not only toward building First Nation community and organizational capacity in both urban and rural locations, but it also serves to strengthen Indigenous allyship and the active and ongoing practice of supporting Indigenous peoples, communities, and rights in ways that are respectful, informed, and rooted in solidarity,” shared Kenjgewin Teg President Beverley Roy.
