Our goal is to be responsive to the needs of First Nations learners by providing the support and services necessary for academic success. We strive to facilitate access to Emily Carr Institute by providing admission and transfer advising services, and maintain excellent retention and graduation rates for First Nations students. We have been successful at increasing in our diverse First Nations Student population as well as in expanding our First Nations programs and course offerings.

The First Nations Office provides culturally appropriate support that encompasses both traditional and contemporary artistic and cultural expressions of First Nations peoples, and is a valuable resource for students to access traditional materials/supplies. The Coordinator also assists with the promotion and coordination of events and workshops related to First Nations art and culture, and is responsible for providing information regarding First Nations scholarships and bursaries throughout the year.
