The University College of the North has celebrated the grand opening of its Bachelor in Ininimowin Program. The program provides students with the opportunity to develop their proficiency in Cree while learning about local cultures, histories, and worldviews through language. Students are not expected to have any Indigenous language experience and can pursue the program at both of UCN’s campuses. They can complete a certificate in Ininimowin after one year, a diploma after two years, or continue to a three-year bachelor’s degree. “Language is an important part of culture, identity and community,” said UCN President Doug Lauvstad.
