Aboriginal Post Secondary Information Program
What is the Aboriginal Post Secondary
Program (APSIP)? This program comprises of an informal
group of Aboriginal Liaison, Recruitment, Counsellor,
and Outreach personnel from various colleges, universities,
and education/training organizations or institutions
throughout the Province of Ontario and beyond. The main
focus of this group, affectionately known as the "Roadwarriors",
is to provide the most up-to-date information regarding
post secondary education/training opportunities to high
school students, mature students, teachers, guidance
counselors, community members and organizations alike.
This goal is accomplished through community visits,
post secondary information days at high schools and
participation at various 'events' throughout the year,
often involving travel into some remote areas of the
Province.
This particular initiative is similar
in nature and structure to the University Information
Program (UIP) and the College Information Program (CIP);
two very successful initiatives carried out each fall
by various colleges and universities exclusively to
Ontario High Schools. APSIP is a program that reaches
beyond the high schools and into the communities; thereby
providing information on opportunities that exist and
encouraging our students to take the necessary steps
to succeed.
APSIP is pleased to be a part of the
Canadian Aboriginal Festival again this year with our
"Education Pavilion". We look forward to meeting
everyone and 'spreading the word' about all of the excellent
opportunities that exist in education today.
