Arnauvugut is about young women having the opportunities to explore trades. 

Arnauguvut programs are workshops or camps for girls aged 13 – 21. So far, these camps have been held in Rankin Inlet, Cambridge Bay, and Iqaluit covering skills from aesthetics, car maintenance and pre-trades programs. 

Discovering Skills Class Presentations is our in school program that directly exposes students to the trade and technology career sectors. 

We bring along a combination of hands on exposure though Try-A-Trade® Kits and have a in depth mini course for high school students for individual and trades based discovery. 

Try a Trade® Kits are single or multi use activities that teachers can order for their classrooms. The kits reflect a trade or technology skill and get students to practice their hands on application skills. 

Teachers can email us for a application that defines the kits we have available. After application, we send the kits!
