This innovative, free three-week program is specifically designed to empower and equip students aged 18 years and older with a diverse range of foundational skills, enabling their success in future educational endeavours.

Enaadmaagemgad Enizha’yaayin is founded on the traditional teachings of the medicine wheel, serving as a comprehensive guide for holistic development. The program aims to help students with their emotional, spiritual, physical, and mental health while giving them tools to build both their personal and professional bundles.

“Enaadmaagemgad Enizha‘yaayin aims to foster students’ well-being across all dimensions of their lives,” said Whitney McGraw, director of health and wellness at Kenjgewin Teg. “We believe that true success stems from a balanced and harmonious approach to personal growth. By integrating traditional teachings with contemporary skills development, we are nurturing individuals who are well-equipped to thrive in their educational journeys and beyond.”

Through the program, participants will immerse themselves in traditional teachings, gaining valuable insights and knowledge from elders and traditional knowledge holders. Additionally, students will participate in workshops tailored to enhance practical skills, including resume building, proficiency in Microsoft applications, and professional communication techniques. This holistic approach ensures that participants not only acquire critical academic skills but also develop the essential tools required to navigate the professional world with confidence.

“Enaadmaagemgad Enizha‘yaayin represents Kenjgewin Teg’s unwavering commitment to providing exceptional educational experiences that embrace cultural heritage while fostering personal and professional growth,” said Kenjgewin Teg president Beverley Roy. “By equipping students with the necessary skills and knowledge, this program paves the way for their success in pursuing their chosen educational paths and achieving their aspirations.”
