Integration and support for new employees in the NWT (In French)

This fully online training was developed by the Fédération franco-ténoise to support individuals who are newly involved with Franco-Ténois community organizations. It invites you to explore the history, political system, and social realities of the Northwest Territories, while highlighting the richness and challenges of a minority Francophone community in a northern context. It is intended for anyone newly involved in a Francophone organization in the Northwest Territories, whether as an employee or in a governance role.
