SICD features a common first year of foundational studies with a certificate exit followed by a specializing second year in which participants take one of two groups of electives leading to a diploma in Indigenous Social Entrepreneurship or a diploma in Community Development.
The program focuses on the social, political, cultural, and economic factors that contribute to the urban, rural, local, and global development of Indigenous peoples.
