We provide the training, tools, and resources that Indigenous peoples need to fully participate in today’s digital economy. We make technology accessible, exciting, and rooted in Indigenous values for people of all ages and life stages. Our programs foster understanding of Indigenous Data Sovereignty, ethical AI, and responsible technology, and provide an opportunity to reflect and celebrate our contributions in this space.
The digital economy is not the future, it is the present. Indigenous peoples deserve full access to the skills, tools, and opportunities that come with it. Digital Skills for Life and Work was built to close that gap by providing Indigenous learners across Canada with everything they need to succeed, from basic digital literacy to advanced technical training and industry recognized certifications.

That is why we pair device and connectivity support with meaningful education, industry partnerships, and pathways to real careers in technology. Whether you are picking up a laptop for the first time or working toward a career in cybersecurity or artificial intelligence, this program meets you where you are and helps you get where you want to go.
