Guidelines:

Applicants must provide an application that includes the purpose of the course, as well as a course outline and detailed budget;
Applicants must demonstrate that they have approached other Métis educational funding agencies prior to applying to CCDF. CCDF does not intend to duplicate the services of other Métis Nation agencies or affiliates:
Training must be through credible organizations that undertake to provide appropriate training;
The training must be specific to business management and not technical training unrelated to the development of management and marketing skills;
The maximum available under this program is 75% of the approved costs;
CCDF funds only direct course costs such as tuition, workshop fees, and books. Living costs are not included;
This funding is only for short courses (degree and post-graduate studies are excluded);
CCDF can support the development of business related courses through Métis training institutions. In this case the institution must provide accurate budgets, complete details on the training including a course outline and a list of the individuals (full and part time) enrolling in the program and other information that may be required to evaluate the success of the training upon completion.
