From the outset, explains Mamadou Diop, Director of AEVT, \u201cwe would often hear the remark that, because our services were called \u2018Continuing Education,\u2019 it gave the impression that we were only offering educational programs.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/12″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

The approach we want to have is to offer a broad range of support services. Yes, to businesses, but also to community organizations, to local political institutions and, in addition, to businesses established here in Nunavik but that came from down south.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/div>\n

For example, when the Landholding Corporation wants to perform a needs assessment, there is no training aspect involved. Our team then acts in a consulting capacity to support<\/em> the Kativik Regional Government.<\/p>\n

This translates to greater flexibility and adaptability. Since they are not under the same restrictions as the youth sector, the services offered by the adult sector allow for an assessment of client needs and can develop ways to meet those needs.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/12″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

We are exploring avenues besides training that is only concerned with employability. Take the need to certify employees, for instance. How can we recognize people and certify them based on their acquired experience instead of only considering the formal training they may have received?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/div>\n

In fact, AEVT wants to work with partners who had not previously considered Kativik Ilisarniliriniq, including women\u2019s associations and any of the other organizations that are working in the areas of Inuit culture, language and identity.<\/p>\n
