Indigenous Financial Management Certificate

The Indigenous Financial Management Certificate Cohort is made up of 7 courses, all of which are courses required for the Certified Aboriginal Financial Management designation (CAFM). It is the first step to attain your CAFM designation. After completing these courses, you will receive AFOA
Canada’s Indigenous Financial Management Certificate. Upon completion of this certificate, you can choose to continue on to AFOA Canada’s Indigenous Financial Management Diploma. This is the second step toward the CAFM designation. Once you have completed the diploma courses, the final step is to ensure you have gained your practical experience and write a final exam to get your
designation.The Fall 2022 Cohort will be accepting applications soon, with the application deadline being September 30, 2022. The first course will take place in person in Vancouver over the week of November 14-18, 2022.

We highly encourage everyone that is interested in applying for the Indigenous Financial Management Certificate Program to take our Indigenous Accounting Fundamentals workshop. This is a 2-day workshop that covers; accounting principles, financial statements introduction, the accounting cycle, bank reconciliations and more.

Taking the Accounting Fundamentals will give you an idea of what the certificate program will entail as well as provide you with some fundamental accounting training, ensuring you’re prepared for the courses in the certificate program!

The workshop will be held at the River Rock Resort on Monday September 12 & Tuesday, September 13. Our Indigenous Governance & HR Conference will begin on Wednesday, September 14 at the River Rock as well – come for accounting and stay for the conference! See agenda and registration above.

Foundations for Professional Communications, an offering from the First Nations Public Service Secretariat and the Nicola Valley Institute of Technology, got off to a great start with our in-person week of learning in January. Pictured here is the incredible cohort of First Nations communicators, and our amazing instructor, Davis McKenzie of Toxw oxw (Becoming Clear) Communications.

The students were able to hone their skills in key areas of communications, and at the end of the week were joined by Howard Grant, Executive Director of the First Nations Summit, and Jehan Casey, Director of the First Nations Public Service Secretariat, who were in attendance as they presented their very own communications plans. All their hard work, commitment, and enthusiasm made this week a huge success, and we are so excited for them as they complete this course and continue their journeys in communications!

Foundations for Professional Communications is a fully accredited course, free of charge for First Nations communicators. If you would like to be added to the mailing list for the next offering, please email: ksposato@fnps.ca.
