NSI is committed to diversity and is a leader in the design and delivery of programs that provide training to Canada’s visible minorities and aboriginal screen professionals. NSI’s online presence includes online resources such as video interviews, podcasts, blogs, and opinion articles from the movers and shakers of Canada’s film & television industry.
