"This was an exceptional awareness session. I have been through a number of courses on the subject over the last 30 years, this one by far was the best. I truly believe I am better prepared to engage in conversation with Aboriginal Peoples." D. P.

"Having done both in-person and virtual training with Indigenous Corporate Training before, I was curious to see how it would translate to self-paced online learning, and this course surpassed my expectations. The content was organized into concise, accessible individual lessons made up of diverse and engaging video and image content, supported by a downloadable e-book for future reference. A great primer for anyone looking to start their own educational journey in support of reconciliation." J. H.
