CAFM Designation
Langara Continuing Studies courses are recognized by AFOA Canada towards their Certified Aboriginal Financial Manager (CAFM) designation. AFOA Canada is a not-for-profit association helping Indigenous people better manage and govern their communities and organizations through a focus on enhancing management, finance and governance practices and skills. The CAFM designation is the only designation for Indigenous finance and management positions in Canada.
Students who are pursuing CAFM designation can complete most of the required courses through Langara Continuing Studies. Specific Indigenous content courses must be completed online through AFOA Canada. Students must then pass a certification exam and must have obtained two-years’ work experience in an Indigenous context.
