Program Overview
The First Nation Applied Economics Certificate provides foundational knowledge and skills to assist in the development of First Nation economic infrastructure, in particular the development of residential and commercial enterprises. The program is of interest to people in First Nation economic development roles; those doing business with First Nations; and local, provincial or federal government employees involved with First Nation development. The program is a blended program with three of six courses taken at TRU’s campus in Kamloops, BC. The remaining courses do not require the same high level of interaction and are completed through distance education in an independent study, continuous intake format.
