Messages from President and Chairperson

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRPERSON
NEC BOARD OF DIRECTORS

On behalf of the NEC Native Education College Board of Directors, it is my honour to welcome you to NEC, BC’s largest Aboriginal private post secondary college. For over 40 years, NEC has provided a culturally appropriate and supportive learning environment for Aboriginal learners.

You are entering an environment that will challenge and support you while respecting the diversity of Aboriginal cultural values of all its learners. You, as a member of NEC’s family of learners, will be an important part of the experience that you and others will have while attending NEC. The Board encourages you to participate in both academic and social events and take the opportunity to share your culture with others. It is our goal to help you prepare yourself for meaningful roles in your Aboriginal community and society in general.

Upon your graduation, you will join with hundreds of NEC’s graduates that have undertaken many different responsibilities that have strengthened their families and communities.

Thanks you for choosing our college. We invite you to excel at your studies as you grow as individuals.

Hometh

David Walkem
Chairperson
NEC Board of Directors
