NEW CREE BURSARY PROGRAM
This program provides bursary funding to support eligible students. Its aim is to build capacity by encouraging JBNQA beneficiaries to pursue post-secondary and vocational education.
There can be many obstacles that stand between a person and their education, but finances shouldn’t be one of them. Apatisiiwin Skills Development wants to support beneficiaries by granting a bursary to students studying at the university, college or vocational level.
The Cree Bursary program will provide recipients with a $500 bursary once every fiscal year, and renewable every year until their education is complete.
Requirements:
Eligible Participants must be:
- A JBNQA Beneficiary
- Enrolled in a post-secondary institution in:
- a post-secondary program, leading to an accredited degree/diploma, or
- a vocational training program, leading to an accredited degree/diploma
- Considered a full-time student
This bursary is to help you focus on getting the education you need. So maybe you spend it on your morning coffee, or maybe you need a new pair of headphones to let you listen to your favourite tunes while studying. It’s up to you.
