Aboriginal Tourism Certificate

Program Introduction

The goal of the TRU Certificate in Aboriginal Tourism is to graduate First Nations students with the skills necessary to become employed in the tourism industry. We ensure a high-quality post-secondary program that is responsive to the needs of aboriginal learners and is linked to labour market opportunities and employment in the field of Aboriginal Tourism. The foundation of the program is on cultural and applied tourism and small business skills.

This certificate is available for delivery in communities throughout the interior of British Columbia.  The program is designed to be completed in one calendar year and combines general tourism and business studies with Aboriginal culture and heritage.

Please contact the School of Tourism at (250) 828-5132 for program details and to determine when the certificate will be offered in your community.
