Jody Isaac, Instructor
Employment Training & Preparation

As a visitor in these territories, I give thanks to Coast and Strait Salish Nations for sharing their culture, knowledge and community. As I have developed friendships, sat in ceremony, worked and learned in the various local communities, I am grateful for the generosity  and hospitality that I have received here.

My Indigenous ancestry comes from my father; through him I am connected to the Thompson Nation in Lytton, BC. Through my mother’s family, I am from a strong Welsh lineage. My blended heritage has taught me a lot about the beauty and importance of belonging, community and family.

Growing up away from my own territory I feel fortunate that I have been able to access culture and community through my education. I am honored to be a part of such a strong and knowledgeable circle of Indigenous staff and faculty here at Camosun College. I look forward to connecting with learners in the classroom or at one of the many events that AECC organizes at the college.

Drop by and say hello. There are a lot of exciting things happening at Camosun. Come and check us out.
