  • “Viewpoints” on Reconciliation: Indigenous Perspectives for Post-Secondary Education in the Southern Interior of Bc
    “VIEWPOINTS” ON RECONCILIATION: INDIGENOUS PERSPECTIVES FOR POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION IN THE SOUTHERN INTERIOR OF BC 2020 Project Synopsis By Christopher Horsethief, PhD, Dallas Good Water, MA, Harron Hall, BA, Jessica Morin, MA, Michele Morin, BSW, Roy Pogorzelski, MA September 1, 2020 Research Funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Executive Summary This research project synopsis presents diverse Indigenous community perspectives regarding the efforts needed to enable systemic change toward reconciliation within a public post-secondary educational institution in the Southern Interior of British Columbia. The main research question for this project was “How does a community college respectfully engage in reconciliation through education with the First Nations and Métis communities in the traditional territories in which it operates?” This research was realized by a team of six Indigenous researchers, representing distinct Indigenous groups within the region. It offers Indigenous perspectives, insights, and recommendations that can help guide post-secondary education toward systemic change. This research project was Indigenous led within an Indigenous research paradigm and done in collaboration with multiple communities throughout the Southern Interior region of British Columbia. Keywords: Indigenous-led research, Indigenous research methodologies, truth and reconciliation, Indigenous education, decolonization, systemic change, public post- secondary education in BC, Southern Interior of BC ii Acknowledgements This research was made possible through funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) of Canada. The important contributions from the Sinixt, Ktunaxa, Syilx, and Métis Elders, Knowledge Keepers, youth, men, and women within this project are essential to restoring important aspects of education that have been largely omitted from the public education system.

    Introducing Okanagan College 2010-11 Viewbook www.okanagan.bc.ca introducing okanagan college Hi, my name is Arianne and I’m a second-year Business Administration student at Okanagan College. I’m here to walk you through our viewbook so you can get a student’s perspective of Okanagan College. Before we get going let me tell you a little about my school. Okanagan College is a community college that offers more than 120 degree, diploma and certificate programs in business, university studies, health and social development, engineering technologies, continuing studies and trades. This school has been around since 1963 and it has a long history of providing education in the Okanagan, Similkameen and Shuswap-Revelstoke regions. After I finished high school I decided to go to Okanagan College because I’d heard really good things about the College and wanted to stay close to home. I also watched my older brother complete his business degree at the College and I could really see myself as an Okanagan College student. I’m from Kelowna, but lots of students come from all over to go to Okanagan College. It is a school with a solid reputation, great professors and is a great place to make new friends and have some fun…but not too much fun. Anyways, let’s get started. Quick Facts Okanagan College: • Is the largest community college in BC east of the Lower Mainland with 1000 employees serving more than 19,000 students. • Serves the Shuswap-Revelstoke, North, Central, and South Okanagan-Similkameen regions with major campuses in Salmon Arm, Vernon, Kelowna and Penticton and education centres in Revelstoke, Summerland and Oliver.

This year has been a remarkable one for the institution, with the opening of a new and renovated trades complex in Kelowna, announcement of a new trades building in Vernon, and start of construction on a new daycare facility in Penticton. Our instructors and administrators, with industry support and guidance, have worked on development of new programs that will welcome their first students in 2017, and have made many refinements to existing programs. All these programs continue to focus on meeting the forecast needs of the regional and provincial labour market. Our College continues to meet and exceed the expectations and goals established by government, and we continue to make progress on our strategic plan. For the 13th consecutive year, Okanagan College has exceeded government enrolment targets. Our institution served 19,655 people in the last academic year at our four major campuses and nine additional learning centres.
