As part of its 40th anniversary celebrations in 2017, BC Care Providers Association announced bursaries for up to 40 students currently enrolled in full-time post-secondary programs to attend the largest continuing care sector conference held in Western Canada.

This year, six students will receive an all-expenses paid experience at the 2019 Annual Conference from May 26th-28th, which includes meals, two-nights accommodation at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler, and transportation. They will be given the opportunity to hear from high-profile speakers and experts, network with industry leaders, and gain insight into best practices and new models of care and technology in the sector.
