Manager, Aboriginal Training Programs
Calgary, Canada Area
I managed the development and expansion of ECO Canada's BEAHR (Building Environmental Aboriginal Human Resources) training programs. Our team created six different community based environmental training programs designed to build capacity within communities affected by resource development. These programs offered a blend of traditional learning methods emphasizing traditional ecological knowledge as well as formal classroom activities. They are employment driven, offer practical hands experience opportunities, include Elder participation and are adaptable to communities nationwide. Associated tasks included general marketing and communications (social networks, HubSpot, our CRM, etc..) for these programs across Canada working closely with Aboriginal communities, resource development companies as well as community colleges.
