| Abstract: | The planning and implementation of a teacher education programme for the original population of Canada must take into account five important elements: the participation of the community itself, the integration of their language and culture, decentralisation of administration, revision of admission criteria, and the quality of the program. An experiment of this kind, which was a success, was tried out at Mount Currie. The Mount Currie program, even though it could serve as a model for other programs, cannot without any modification be transposed to all the other communities. In fact, the program only corresponds to the particular needs of a particular community and of the persons who make it up. |
