The Early Childhood Educators of BC student bursary program is a partnership between
ECEBC and the Vancity Community Foundation, with funds provided by the provincial
government’s Ministry of Children and Family Development.

Earlier this summer, we regrettably had to suspend the ECEBC student bursary program due to an exponential increase in student bursary awards and the subsequent expension of bursary funds. Since that time, ECEBC has had meetings with relevant stakeholders to discuss the merits of ECEBC’s bursary program and the possibility of a renewed funding agreement. All parties agreed that the bursary program has been successful, with the promise of continuing dialogue about the future of continuing the program.
After further review of the ECEBC bursary budget, we are pleased to announce that the bursary program will be extended for the Summer 2010 semester only. Applications will be accepted from Wednesday, July 28 to Thursday, August 31, 2010. If you have already submitted a Summer 2010 bursary application and received an email notification that it was accepted by the ECEBC office, please do not submit another application for the Summer 2010 semester. Please note that transcripts for the Summer 2010 semester must be received by the ECEBC office by Thursday, September 30, 2010.
Due to limited funds, this process will be on a first-come, first-serve basis for eligible bursary recipients.
