Ultimate Aboriginal Awareness – May 19, 2010

Never have you had access to all three of Canada’s Aboriginal Peoples in one seminar!

Join presenters from all three of Canada’s Aboriginal Peoples – Métis, Inuit, First Nation – as they share their decades of collective training experience to help participants get to know, understand and more importantly learn how to build relationships with Canada’s Aboriginal Peoples.  Participants will be provided with a neutral place to review historical events significant to First Nations, Métis, and Inuit and their relation to the present economic environment; explore critical issues of taxation, housing, arctic sovereignty, climate change in the North and education; show how working with Aboriginal Peoples can enhance your career and business; and help you understand cross-cultural perspectives.
