Published purpose
This 36-month project seeks to increase economic security and prosperity among Inuit childcare workers by developing and testing an Inuit Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma program with Algonquin College. The culturally-specific model and content will be shaped by focus groups with Inuit women and girls, in tandem with reviews of existing preparatory and training programs. Market research with prospective employers will also be undertaken, with demand for qualified Indigenous educators expected to be increasing to meet the needs of the growing Inuit population in Ottawa.
