Today, there are a number of good reasons why more Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal organizations are doing business with an estimated 27,000 Aboriginal companies in Canada. Simply stated, a good Aboriginal procurement program helps organizations advance their business case for inclusion. It is a Hallmark strategy designed to strengthen corporate social responsibility and relationships with the Aboriginal community.
Introduction to Successful Aboriginal Procurement training provides you with access to a comprehensive online Aboriginal procurement training program that is available at your fingers tips and your convenience, 24/7.
