Thank you, Mr. Chair. We haven't looked at holding a big public conference to talk about education in the Northwest Territories, because we think it's been more important to get the money into the classroom. What I do, though, is I meet twice a year with all of the chairs from all the boards, and what my expectation is for meetings is in their meetings they will be talking to -- remember the DECs have somebody from the community on them -- they'll be talking to the representatives from the communities, and if there are issues, that they can bring those forward and we can talk about them around the table at those meetings, and then discuss how we might resolve issues or how we might move forward with issues.
Things like what the Tlicho have done in terms of cultural awareness of new people coming in, we talk about that. We talk about different examples of how people can help teachers through the Mentorship Program. For instance in Aklavik, the DEA assigns a community member to work with a new teacher to just help them understand the community, to be integrated into the community. So there are different approaches that are used in different communities.
What we do around the table is share those ideas for how the programs are working and how we might improve in each of our communities the way teachers feel integrated and the way teachers do their job.
