FNTI

FNTI (formerly known as First Nations Technical Institute) is an Indigenous-owned and -governed post-secondary institute located in Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory in Ontario. The institute puts on programming rooted in Indigegogy and Indigenous ways of knowing.

FNTI is a registered non-profit/charitable organization, accredited by the World Indigenous Nations Higher Education Consortium (WINHEC), a member of Colleges and Institutes Canada (CICan), and undergoing the process of an organizational review with the Indigenous Advanced Education and Skills Council.

As of July 2020, FNTI has over 4,000 graduates with certificate, diploma and degree credentials issued in partnership with recognized Ontario colleges and universities. The institute will begin the delivery of standalone bachelor's degrees in 2020 in accordance with the Indigenous Institutes Act, 2017.

As of July 2020, FNTI has an overall graduation rate of 93% and its graduates have a 98% employment rate.

In 1917, the Canadian Royal Flying Corps survey operation identified the flatlands of Tyendinaga as an excellent location for a flight training facility, Camp Mohawk. In 1985, FNTI federally incorporated to create educational pathways for Indigenous Peoples.

FNTI started their First Peoples’ Aviation Technology – Flight program in 1989 to train First Nations, Métis and Inuit pilots on the former Camp Mohawk site.

Since its inception, the institute has delivered certificate, diploma and degree credentials issued in partnership with recognized Ontario colleges and universities. In 2020, FNTI will begin delivering its own standalone bachelor's degrees in accordance with the Indigenous Institutes Act, 2017.
