Description

There are many ways contracting authorities can support economic growth for Indigenous businesses, people and communities. This online self-paced course introduces the federal procurement policies, obligations and considerations that can be applied to increase opportunities for Indigenous businesses in Canada. Participants will learn about the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business (PSIB) and gain a broader understanding of modern treaties or Comprehensive Land Claims Agreements (CLCAs) and how they can affect the procurement process.

Topics include:

  • determining the applicability of modern treaties/CLCAs and the key mechanisms of the PSIB
  • describing the common procurement obligations that may apply when a procurement is subject to a modern treaty/CLCA
  • explaining how modern treaty/CLCA obligations and the use of the PSIB may affect certain steps in the procurement process
