NAIITS’ academic degrees offer open-ended opportunities for the global Indigenous community to be part of a flexible program of learning.

NAIITS symposiums are themselves learning communities, unique in their blend of academic and practitioner teaching.

NAIITS has carefully selected partners who are clearly Jesus-focused in their worldview and mission, and who respect Indigenous leadership.

We invite you to participate with Indigenous leaders from around the world and become part of a diverse group of highly dedicated visionaries.

NAIITS An Indigenous Learning Community

NAIITS An Indigenous Learning Community (formerly the North American Institute for Indigenous Theological Studies) is one of two members of Indigenous Pathways (IP), a nonsectarian, non-profit organization dedicated to working together with the Indigenous community.

NAIITS’ focus within IP is the development and articulation of Indigenous perspectives in theology and practice. We encourage Indigenous learning styles and world views in our instruction as we facilitate the development of a body of work addressing biblical, theological, and ethical issues from Indigenous perspectives.

NAIITS offers graduate and post-graduate degrees and awards.
