More funding for post secondary education aid programs

The province has announced enhancements to post-secondary support for vulnerable Nova Scotians.

The Career Seek Program will now include one year of tuition, all student fees and book costs, as well as more personal allowances for child care and transportation, student fees, Internet access, and incidentals.  The Educate to Work Program will have eligible dependents of clients get funding for half their tuition, and full funding for textbooks, student fees, and health and dental insurance for core NSCC programs.
