Our programming model is in the form of the sacred circle of life. 

The inner circle sets out the principles that underpin all our work, which we call Right Relations and which mirrors the seven grandfather teachings. 

The next circle is our Wise Practices model with its seven elements of success, developed from our best practices literature review. 

The Seven Wise Practices elements of success are: 

  • identity and culture
  • leadership
  • strategic vision and planning
  • governance and management
  • accountability and stewardship 
  • performance evaluation
  • collaborations, partnerships, and external relationships. 

Participants earn the Certificate of Indigenous Leadership, Governance, and Management Excellence by successfully completing one program from each of the seven Wise Practices Elements.

The third circle lists the certificate-level programs we offer as well as special non-certificate programs such as Truth and Reconciliation Through Right Relations.
