Indigenous Theological Studies
First Nations and other Indigenous leaders and scholars are asking questions about the role Native histories, worldviews and cultures should play in informing and shaping our understandings of the Bible, our Creator and our theology. We're holding these alongside Western history, culture and theologies, bringing together people of common faith who, within diverse partnerships, can help reshape the Church for the future.
Check us out to learn more about our programs of study and how you can become involved in this Indigenous Theological Educational movement.

"FIRST COHORT FOR NAIITS MASTERS DEGREE PROGRAM"
THE LAUNCH
Our first cohort in the Masters degree program launched May 31, 2011 with 11 students from across North America. Already into their second semester, the cohort of 6 women and 5 men has shown itself well able to engage the rigours of study while giving us valuable feedback as we hammer out the final framework and details for the new MA degree program.
Speaking of the new degree program, the first NAIITS designed degree – the MA in Intercultural Studies (MAIS) – is just about finalized! It has a few more hurdles to jump as we move toward final approval. Stay tuned for the formal announcement soon!
