UVic co-launches custom MBA in Indigenous Reconciliation

The University of Victoria has announced the co-launch of a custom MBA in Indigenous Reconciliation. The MBA will be developed through a partnership with the BC Association of Aboriginal Friendship Centres (BCAAFC), and has received $8.4M in support from the BC Ministry of Social Development and Poverty Reduction. The program will use a closed-enrolment model, with students selected by BCAAFC and BC. “The MBA in Indigenous Reconciliation is a powerful example of the critically important programming that is achievable when we follow the Hul’qumi’num teaching Ts’its’uwatul’ tseep (to help each other or working together),” said UVic VP Indigenous Qwul’sih’yah’maht Robina Thomas. UVic says that the program is the first of its kind in the world. UVic Note: Archived stories may contain dead links or be missing source links.
