Post-Secondary Education Assistance Policy

Henvey Inlet First Nation Post-Secondary Education Assistance (PSEA) Policy

Introduction

Henvey Inlet First Nation is proud to be a member of the Anishinabek Education System (AES) and its administrative structure, the Kinoomaadziwin Education Body (KEB).

The KEB is a not-for-profit corporation that takes direction from the 23 Participating First Nations (PFN's). The KEB has a 12-member Board of Directors that is comprised of representatives from the four Anishinabek Regional Education Councils (REC's).

Henvey Inlet First Nation belongs to REC #3 along with the following First Nations: Moose-Deer Point, Wasauksing, Magnetawan, Dokis, Nipissing and Wahnapitae. The KEB supports the 23 Participating First Nations in their delivery of education programs and services and continues to liaise with the province of Ontario on education matters.

Every five years, the Anishinabek Education System (AES)negotiates a new Financial Agreement with Canada on behalf of the Participating First Nations.

Purpose

The Post-Secondary Education Assistance (PSEA) program is designed to help Henvey Inlet First Nation members to offset the personal cost of obtaining a post-secondary education by assisting with tuition and other qualified expenses, as set out in this policy.

Henvey Inlet First Nation is committed to the educational success of our students. Every effort will be made to ensure that the greatest number of students are funded and supported through this program; however, it is important for students to remember that the Education budget is limited by the number of students receiving assistance in any given year.

Students are encouraged to apply for Scholarships and Bursaries throughout the year to enhance their financial resources.
