The Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) is partnering with Vancouver Island University (VIU) to offer Indigenous graduates access to an Indigenous Student Success Program, similar to the university’s Indigenous Intern Leadership Program. Through a partnership agreement, SAIT is creating future pathways to success for Indigenous students – and in turn, Indigenous communities in Alberta.
The program will provide qualifying post-secondary Indigenous graduates with an opportunity to apply for two-year positions at companies in Alberta. As the program is being developed, SAIT is prioritizing outreach to businesses with a demonstrated commitment to an Indigenous talent pipeline. By providing a direct route for recent graduates to receive hands-on experience, graduates will build on workplace skills and knowledge, and strengthen professional networks.
“Achieving post-secondary success holds a deep significance for Indigenous students at SAIT, as well as the communities they call home,” says Dr. Janet Welch, SAIT Vice President, Academic. “Through this program we hope to expand on that success by connecting students to industry and employers committed to supporting Indigenous graduates as they build foundational skills for their future careers.”
