The mentorship includes regular meetings with the Bishkaa ambassadors who are available to help guide students in their transition to Fleming College and help them to become familiar with the City of Peterborough, Lindsay, and surrounding First Nations communities.
Bishkaa ambassadors also work with Indigenous student services as well as various internal departments to assist in some program planning and delivery.
