12 BOTTOM LINE: OUR FIRST NATIONS CLIENTS FNWACCB certification ensures that the level of services provided to individual First Nations clients, families and communities by our certified professionals meet the highest standards of practice.
13 A QUALIFIED WORKFORCE FNWACCB certification responds to the need of First Nations employers to hire workers who possess professional qualifications and competencies that have been assessed according to culturally relevant professional standards.
14 A COMPETENT WORKFORCE FNWACCB recognizes that when informal and on-the-job training are combined with academic course work, First Nations wellness and addiction practitioners have the most relevant qualifications and competencies to work effectively with their sisters and brothers who suffer from addictions.
