class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">The Business Council of Manitoba conducted a review of its Indigenous Education Awards Program (IEAP). IEAP provides financial awards to Indigenous post-secondary students based on financial need, while requiring the students to maintain the minimum scholastic standards of their program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">The review made several recommendations for improvement to the 20-year-old IEAP. The major gap identified in the IEAP was the lack of a WIL component, no work placements, no organized mentorship, and lack of networking opportunities for participants.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">Further, Business Council members indicated increasing Indigenous recruitment and retention is a priority for industry. The increased awareness of multi-generational trauma and systemic barriers within organizations, combined with a spirit of Reconciliation and the awards review results, have led to an opportunity to create an innovative, integrated work program to increase Indigenous inclusion in industry. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style
