This has been another exceptional year for NALMA, as we continue to grow and respond to the needs of our members. We understand the important role Land Managers play in each of your First Nation communities. It is with this in mind, that we continue to engage with an open-door policy, to ensure our programming and services are up to date, accurate, and relevant to Land Managers. We are proud to announce our third University partner, who will support the delivery of our Professional Lands Management Certification Program. Vancouver Island University
