Oshki-Pimache-O-Win: The Wenjack Education Institute is inviting First Nation students, education staff, and community leaders to share their voices through a short survey.

Your feedback will help Oshki-Wenjack better understand the barriers to students attending our courses, and to understand the types of courses/programs Indigenous communities and learners/students would like delivered.

The survey is anonymous and takes about 10 minutes to complete.

Miigwetch for helping strengthen education for our future generations!
