Resurgence of Our Knowledges

The Ontario Aboriginal Head Start Association’s Centre for Indigenous Professional Learning will provide professional learning opportunities across the province that reflect Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, and Inuit) ontologies, epistemologies, pedagogies, and leadership for off reserve Indigenous Child Care and Early Years programs.

The Centre for Indigenous Professional Learning will support high quality, culturally safe space within Child Care and Early Years programs; with an emphasis on how Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, and Inuit) worldview intersects with How Does Learning Happen? Ontario’s Pedagogy for the Early Years (2014). Promoting opportunities for empowering mentorship and leadership roles for urban Indigenous Educators.

Through innovative modalities we will offer professional learning through online sessions, virtual gatherings, pre- recorded modules, and resources.
