The British Columbia Institute of Technology campuses are located on the unceded traditional territories of the Coast Salish Nations, including xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh).
For more than 60 years, we’ve been supporting the vitality of BC’s economy on Indigenous traditional lands, and for that, we are grateful. Everything we’ve achieved is a testament to our people. As one of the province’s top employers for over a decade and counting, we’re proud of the exceptional working environment we’ve created for our faculty and staff.

Reconciliation at BCIT
We acknowledge that the relationship with Indigenous peoples in Canada has been troubled and must be reconciled; we are deeply committed to working with our partners to address these issues. We are guided by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Actions, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People, and the Aboriginal Post-Secondary Education and Training Policy Framework and Action Plan: 2020 Vision for the Future by the British Columbia Ministry of Advanced Education, Skills, and Training. Advancing Reconciliation is a priority for BCIT, and we appreciate our relationship with Indigenous peoples at all levels, across all campuses, throughout the province, and beyond.
