Indigenizing Your Course

Release of Fifth Indigenous Histories and Reconciliation Module: Bravery

To support Durham College's (DC) Indigenization Statement, the First Peoples Indigenous Centre (FPIC), in collaboration with CAFE, has developed a seven-part training module titled: Indigenous Histories and Reconciliation. These seven modules will be rolled out over the next few months and will be available under the self-registration tab on DC Connect.

The fifth module, Bravery, is available now. This module will focus on understanding the intention behind the creation of the residential school policy and recognize the ongoing impacts of the assimilationist polices on Indigenous peoples and their communities. This training module is available for the DC community to support an understanding of Indigenous histories in Canada, and to engage with reconciliation and decolonization, personally and professionally.

If you register on DC Connect now, you will receive updates when new content is released. FPIC is also hosting bi-weekly Learning Circles to discuss best practices and to create a community of practice around Indigenization. All are welcome.

Please register using the training calendar. The next Indigenous Learning Circle is scheduled for December 11 from 12 to 1 p.m.
