| Do you know an Indigenous person interested in finance? They could launch their financial career by joining the Indigenous Financial Management Apprenticeship Program (IFMAP). The full-time, cooperative, 24-month program seeks to empower Indigenous individuals interested in finance and increase Indigenous representation in financial roles within the federal public service and broader finance community. Dual Academic Streams To support Indigenous talent across Canada, IFMAP offers two distinct academic pathways. Regardless of which federal department you are placed in, your foundational schooling is tailored to your preferred language of instruction: · The English Stream: Academic core courses are delivered in partnership with Simon Fraser University (SFU) and AFOA Canada. The French Stream: Academic core courses are delivered in partnership with the Faculté des sciences de l’administration of Université Laval (FSA ULaval) and AFOA Canada. Apprentices will gain on-the-job experience within a federal department and will work full-time in key financial areas such as accounting, operations, resource management, and financial systems. The courses cover key areas such as financial accounting, business communications, and Indigenous business law, ensuring a well-rounded educational foundation. In addition to education and work-specific support, each apprentice will have a financial professional mentor to provide support and advice. |
