Founded in 1994 to address the collective issues impacting post-secondary Indigenous education in Ontario, today the Indigenous Institutes Consortium (formerly the Aboriginal Institutes Consortium) represents eight Indigenous-owned and controlled education and training institutions across the province.

Through 25 years of ongoing advocacy, the Indigenous Institutes Consortium (IIC) has succeeded in raising the awareness and profiles of Indigenous institutions, learners and communities. This work culminated in 2017 with the historic passage of Ontario’s Indigenous Institutes Act which formally recognized the role of Indigenous education.

Today, the IIC is the collective voice of the province’s Indigenous education sector and is driving the push for resources and capacity-building required to ensure that Indigenous education forms a viable and sustainable third pillar alongside Ontario’s colleges and universities.
