Kwey – School of Business and Hospitality

Posted on Tuesday, November 25th, 2025

As part of Algonquin College’s commitment to expanding the traditional Anishinàbe (ah-nish-in-AHH-bay) Algonquin Nation language onAnita Tenasco campus, we are sharing vocabulary, phrases and information to familiarize learners and employees with the traditional language.

For people passionate about entrepreneurship or delivering unforgettable guest experiences, the School of Business and Hospitality (kijewàdizi) focuses on innovation, customer service (anamikàge) and building skills that apply across many industries.

Other useful terms:

  • kijewàdizi = hospitable
  • anamikàge = to greet in a welcoming way
  • anamikawà-n = to welcome someone
