Native Education College
Helping Indigenous learners realize their potential in a supportive and cultural environment.
The Native Education College (NEC) was established in 1967 and founded by Ray Collins, who worked at the Departments of Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada. The overall objective was to provide Indigenous adult learners with academic and life skills to secure employment and improve their quality of life. By 1979, NEC became a private College, operated and controlled by BC First Nations.Links
