UA Web portal - free program for tribal leaders

arizonanativenet.com

The UA’s ArizonaNativeNet Web portal is launching a free distance learning program designed to give tribal leaders targeted information on American Indian law and governance. The class is the first in a series of online programs planned to address an increasing need for information on laws and native nation building, according to UA’s announcement of the program. Titled “The History of Federal Indian Law and Policy: the European Doctrine of Discovery and American Indian Rights,” the first course focuses on areas including tribal sovereignty and congressional power. As many as 20 courses are planned, with future offerings including entrepreneurship and business on American Indian lands and modern tribal jurisdiction. The courses are created by experts in University of Arizona academic programs like the Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management and Policy and the Indigenous Peoples Law and Policy Program. The information is targeted for tribal leaders, lawyers, judges and college students. ArizonaNativeNet, arizonanativenet.com, was launched last year and also includes information on health, education, breaking news, employment and grant opportunities for American Indian communities
