Saskatoon, SK Indigenous Water Treatment Training Program

The kanātan nipīy - or clean water - program teaches current treatment techniques to indigenous residents. City, tribal, and private-sector partners created all-ages and 18-29 cohorts to address different career goals. The costs of training can be reduced or eliminated with funding opportunities through the Saskatoon Tribal Council. City officials introduced this program to open new opportunities for indigenous workers and diversify the industry's workforce.
