Micro-Credentials at FNTI
FNTI’s micro-credentials are rooted in culture and are developed as rapid training opportunities that can help individuals gain skills or retrain.
Our goal is to help our communities prosper through knowledge, service, and employment.
FNTI's micro-credentials are organized into bundles, each with a specific focus.
Each individual micro-credential takes 15 hours to complete and are facilitated by Instructors, Cultural Advisors, and Student Success Facilitators. The successful completion of a micro-credential will be recognized with a unique digital badge. Learners who complete three (3) micro-credentials within a single bundle are eligible to receive a Certificate of Recognition.

Allyship is greatly valued and a huge step towards challenging oppression. Allyship with Indigenous Peoples’ requires an unwavering commitment to learning, unlearning and challenging change. It means building and fostering respectful relationships, that includes a process of building relationships based on trust, consistency, and accountability. This micro-credential will examine common interpretations of the word “ally” and the work of “allyship” including the role of allyship from an Indigenous lens, why allies are needed, how an ally can overstep, and what qualifies someone as an ally.
