Indigenous students represent a significant challenge for universities and colleges in Canada. Significant efforts are being made to recruit and retain more Indigenous learners and to improve completion rates. But it is a challenge for all sorts of reasons, ranging from financial through cultural to the appropriateness of approaches to learning. This paper from Universities Canada (just as relevant for college administrators) lays out the challenge and suggests thirteen principles, which can shape the response to this challenge of low completion rates. While it would be good to have seen some examples of each of these thirteen principles in action through best practice cases and a broader strategic commitment, it is a helpful contribution to the debate.
