The CCLP courses equip learners with the knowledge and skills to assume entry-level management positions in logistics and transportation – crucial for the ongoing well-being of the Northern economy. CNC educates young professionals in order to enhance careers, boost economic efficiency, and improve communities by fostering better infrastructure, streamlined operations, informed decision-making, legal compliance, and effective supply chain management.
As CNC is based in Yellowknife, its leadership understands how important logistics is in the North – dealing with logistical extremes such as communities with fly-in, ice road, and boat/barge only access; vast geographical distances with limited telecommunications and support; and extremes from ice roads in the winter to challenging wildfires in the summer. Few other educational institutions in Canada can equip logistics learners to deal with the extremes found in the North.
Through these professional pathways, CNC develops its students to lay the groundwork for pathways to better lives, stronger communities, and a brighter future for the North.
Admission requirements for CNC’s programs are established at levels that allow these programs to be accessible for applicants with diverse educational, employment and cultural backgrounds, and at the same time, attempt to ensure that the applicant is sufficiently prepared in order to achieve student success. There are various eligibility criteria that are involved with the admission procedure. There are two basic requirements for admission to university for Canadian students:
A. CNC will review the application to determine if the applicant is qualified, tentatively qualified, or not qualified. Applicants will be informed in writing either by regular mail or electronically;
B. CNC will normally offer program seats to qualified applicants on a ‘first qualified, first admitted’ basis, provided the applicant meets all admission requirements.
C. CNC may, in its sole discretion, do any or all of the following, if a student knowingly or carelessly provides untrue or incomplete information with their application:
The CNC team in charge of admissions considers an applicant’s educational background, cultural knowledge, work experience, educational goals, and other achievements. A four-person member committee – consisting of two Indigenous representatives from CNC – will review this information along with the relevant faculty and members of CNC’s Academic Team.
