Overview

The National Indigenous Student Circle was founded by Indigenous students in the Public Service who wanted a space to connect, network, and share resources amongst other Indigenous students.

As an extension of the Indigenous Student Employment Opportunity, the National Indigenous Student Circle offers a Facebook group for previously employed students, currently employed students, and those who are interested in employment, a podcast series on most requested topics to fit with students’ busy schedules, and events that include mentorship and how to be bridged.

Our Mission

This network was developed to:

  • To develop a community to connect, collaborate, network, and engage with other Indigenous students from across all departments
  • Create an accessible platform to easily share tools and resources, event information, and to respond to any questions or concerns from the Indigenous student population
  • To address the Many Voices One Mind report recommendations such as: Support the coordination and advancement of an interdepartmental Indigenous employee network that includes a youth-specific component for new recruits and young professionals
  • Implement the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada's Call to Action #7: which calls on the federal government to "develop a joint strategy with Aboriginal groups to close the education and employment gaps between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Canadians."
