Thanks to another round of funding from Future Skills Canada, UCN is able to run three IT programs simultaneously for the upcoming academic school year.

In a press release, the institution says Futures Skills Canada is investing over one million dollars to continue the InTeRN and Train the Trainer programs, which address the gaps and barriers preventing northern Indigenous women from entering IT jobs.

UCN states it’s thanks to the success of these programs that it can add a third program that’s open to all northerners: the IT Support Technician program.

The fall and winter intakes will pilot the five month program.
