Indigenous people are less likely to receive a Bachelors degree in University compared to non-Indigenous students.

Excel workbook
The purpose of my research is to compare the education levels of Metis, Inuit, and non-Indigenous people in British Columbia. Here is the link to my Raw data, and my Data Slice. The Raw data contains information on different Indigenous groups and their education level, compared to non-Indigenous people. In update 1, I had used a different data set. In my slice sheet, I compare Metis people, Inuit people, and non-indigenous people to each other. I also include percentages. My data states that the Inuit people have the lowest levels of education, and the highest number of percentage of people that did not receive any education, including a high school diploma. Indigenous people are also less likely to receive a university degree compared to non-Indigenous students.

Original Data Set link
This, is the new data set I used from Statistics Canada, but instead of showing Canada wide statistics, I changed it to only contain information on British Columbia.

News story
This news story describes the efforts put in place by community workers who seek to help Indigenous teens become ready for post-secondary education. The purpose of this is to introduce them to life in university, and what it would be like to attend. The reason these efforts are made is because Indigenous people have a low enrolment rate in University. This article mentions that the amount of Indigenous students attending university had dropped. Overall, the purpose of my data was to compare Metis people's level of education with the Inuit people levels of education. I also wanted to compare the different percentage rates of Indigenous people attending university with the percentage rate of non-Indigenous people attending university. All in all, my final data report will be focused on Indigenous people's level of post-secondary education and the reasons this rate is lower than non-indigenous people.
