Learning

Are you ready to build your knowledge in family or workplace mental health, Indigenous engagement, or EDIB?

Our style is supportive, interactive, and fun.

We help you build psychologically and culturally safer spaces for individual, family, and workplace wellbeing. Reciprocity and good relations are foundational to our teaching philosophy.

Facilitated courses: Webinars are short (1-2 hours) while workshops are longer, sometimes multi-day, and have much more interaction between participants and facilitator.

Self-paced online learning: Join us on our new learning platform coming later in 2024. Subscribe to our newsletter for updates.

Feedback from our custom workshop Building Inclusive Workspaces for Métis Apprentices:

The course material is exceptional. I believe it should be a staple in our organization for any level of supervisor/ work leader at our organization. Field leaders as well as locational/functional leaders.
