Indigenous Training & Employment Growth Program
We build a reliable, job-ready workforce by recruiting, onboarding, and advancing Indigenous employees through restoration and construction career pathways — training delivered on real project work.
A Core Operating Capability
The Indigenous Training & Employment Growth Program is not a standalone initiative — it is integrated into active project work so skills development is tied directly to service quality, safety, and insurer-aligned performance. Certification support is delivered to internal staff through structured on-the-job learning and apprenticeship pathways.
How It Works
Community-led outreach to Indigenous groups and bands across BC and Ontario, with onboarding into real restoration work.
Structured on-the-job learning, apprenticeship pathways, and trade-aligned certification in restoration and construction.
Clear progression into skilled trades and leadership roles, building long-term, sustainable Indigenous employment.
Governed by Indigenous Women Leadership
The program is governed by majority Indigenous women ownership and implemented through direct engagement with Indigenous communities in British Columbia and Ontario, incorporating local workforce needs into recruitment and program design.
