Adult Education
The Adult Education program transferred in October 2004 from the Prince Albert Grand Council. SLFN assumed control of it’s administration and service delivery. Adult Education is a stand-alone program responsible for the Post Secondary Student Support Program (PSSSP) and the Local Labour Force Development Program (LLFD).
The Contribution Funding Arrangements with Indian & Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) & Human Resources Services Development Canada (HRSDC) require the band’s administration to follow, adhere and report under its funding requirements and operating guidelines.
