Six Nations Polytechnic’s Advanced Diploma in Ǫgwehǫweh Language Program has received accreditation through the Indigenous Advanced Education and Skills Council (IAESC). Learners in this diploma program complete two years of study at the Six Nations Campus. Each cohort program cycle focuses on one Ǫgwehǫweh language, enabling learners to obtain a diploma in one of six streams. “The Advanced Diploma in Ǫgwehǫweh Language is one more step that SNP is taking towards the critical development of quality assured Ǫgwehǫweh language programs and language revitalization,” said SNP Dean of Language, Culture and Lifelong Learning Robin Staats. The polytechnic said that this marks the first time that a standalone advanced diploma in the Ǫgwehǫweh language has been granted by an Indigenous institution.
