  • Central Closing Conference Report 2016-2017
    IN.BUSINESS CENTRAL REGION CLOSING CONFERENCE MAY 5-6, 2017, SASKATOON, SK In.Business: A National Mentorship Program for Indigenous Youth is a program that uses social media, smartphone technology, Indigenous mentors, and in-person conferences to educate Indigenous high school students about business. In.Business was established in 2011 by the Purdy Crawford Chair in Aboriginal Business Studies at Cape Breton University (CBU). The Nova Scotia pilot of the In.Business program (the Business Network for Aboriginal Youth) was comprised of 30 students and six mentors from across Nova Scotia. Since 2011, In.Business has expanded nationally and 593 students have completed the program to date, and includes students from every province and territory. In.Business is made possible by the generous financial support from Indigenous and Northern Affairs and various other government and private donors. The Journey In fall 2016, 83 students applied for the 60 spots in the Central Region. The 60 students that were chosen and seven mentors attended two overnight conferences: the opening at the University of Winnipeg in November, and most recently, our closing in Saskatoon in May. In-between conferences, students worked in their virtual groups on 10 bi-weekly business challenges via social media, which were facilitated by their mentors. In total, over 50 different topics were explored, including: stock market simulation; skills needed for management; the business side of social media; funding options for entrepreneurs; interview preparation; marketing your home community as a tourist destination; and a call to action from the Truth & Reconciliation Report about business. Students also learned about running their own business using “Music Mogul,” a smartphone gaming app that was designed specifically for the In.Business program.

    Saskatoon Indian & Métis Friendship Centre presents 37th ANNUAL Indigenous Grad Celebration 2021 A Message from Louise Oelke, Chairperson Saskatoon Indian & Métis Friendship Centre Congratulations! You have reached an important milestone in your life and, more importantly, a stepping stone to future success. We are living in interesting times where many challenges are in front of you. However, through hard work you have laid the foundations that will propel you into new and exciting careers. As with every new path in life, you will meet and make new friends, start new careers, and at times reflect on your term in high school, only to come to the conclusion that all of the hard work, sacrifice, and dedication was worth the effort. I would be remiss if I did not thank the parents and grandparents who worked tirelessly and supported the graduates of 2021. To the teachers, counsellors, and other supports in the high schools, I salute you for helping the graduates of 2021 make it through these important years. Graduates of 2021: on behalf of the Saskatoon Indian Métis Friendship Centre Board of Directors, excellent job, well done! It is our hope that wherever your path may lead you, success will follow, and we know you will be the generation of change. May the Creator guide you on your lifelong journey. Maarsii, Marci Choo, Tiniki, Megweetch, Thank you. 1 A Message from His Worship Charlie Clark Mayor of Saskatoon On behalf of my colleagues on City Council, it is my great honour to congratulate all of the Indigenous high school students in Saskatoon who are graduating this year, here in Treaty Six Territory and the traditional homeland of the Métis.

  • Arbos Award Citations
    Citations Gwen Dueck 2018 Arbos Award for Contributions to the Professional Organization Throughout her career as an educator and leader, Gwen Dueck has always acted with integrity and sincerity in advancing the interests of teachers, students and the publicly funded public education system in Saskatchewan. Gwen’s leadership skills ensured the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation stayed true to its mandate through principled decision making in the face of challenging circumstances. It is a result of this work that we honour Gwen as the 2018 recipient of the Arbos Award for Contributions to the Professional Organization. Gwen holds a bachelor of education degree and a master of education degree from the University of Saskatchewan and has completed graduate coursework in educational leadership and policy at the University of British Columbia. She has also pursued further learning and professional growth through many avenues including the Institute of Corporate Directors and Queen’s University. Gwen began her career in a Grade 2 classroom in what was then the Saskatchewan Valley School Division. She served in a number of roles including a teacher of a multi-grade class of Grades 1 to 4, a teacher-librarian and a learning resource coordinator before joining the Federation as the Saskatchewan Professional Development Unit Director. She went on to serve as the Assistant General Secretary (now known as the Associate Executive Director) and in 2008 was appointed Executive Director - a role she held for nine years. As the first woman to serve in either capacity in the Federation’s history, Gwen broke new ground and served as an inspiration for women in leadership roles throughout the profession.
