The Native Education College and Vancouver International Airport (YVR) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to foster cultural understanding, educational empowerment, and reconciliation. Through the MOU, YVR and NEC will work together to develop scholarship programs, educational and development resources, networking opportunities, and communications and marketing initiatives to raise awareness of the college. NEC will also provide annual Indigenous Cultural Awareness Training sessions to airport employees as part of this agreement. “We are proud to partner with the Native Education College to support their work to develop a culturally appropriate and supportive learning environment for Indigenous learners,” said YVR President Tamara Vrooman.
