Postsecondary Education Programs for Aboriginal Peoples: Achievements and Issues.
Overview & Synopsis
Four case studies illustrate three approaches to Aboriginal postsecondary education in Canada: the add-on approach, the partnership approach, and the First Nations control approach. Overcoming challenges related to access, completion rates, Indian control, and cultural relevance relies in large part on the political will of Canadian governing bodies to remedy the historical imbalances caused by colonization.
