Humble Beginnings

To give instruction towards giving viable knowledge that has been omitted from public education to our reaming indigenous America community about their ancestral heritage connection to life on Earth and the life knowledge need to live with life on Earth. Working with the international community on indigenous issues, Ambassador RaDine learned people without traditional knowledge and culture will not be recognized with fundamental rights inheritance to their place of origin granted by The U.N. Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People. To start to meet the needs of the international community, Ambassador RaDine started traveling all over the Americas gathering traditional wisdom and living skills, international scholars were sponsored and brought to teach indigenous cultural technology still in use today at our West Virginia Campus. The Indigenous Certification Program expanded from being a weekend program, giving documented details about pre-colonial America and their life covenant culture with America. Into a 40-week traditional knowledge foundation intensive training program.. required by all restraints desiring to be listed with the America Heritage Registry as part of the Anisazi Peoples of America in North America.
