Post Secondary Education - College / University
Our Post Secondary Program was originally administered under the Seven Generations Program. In 1995,
Whitesand First Nation withdrew and developed their own education program. The Education Program is responsible
for the administration of the educational budget. A board was developed to assist the Program Coordinator with the
selection of applicants. Each year it is the intent of the Program to provide as many applicants with their educational
request.
