NB launches two new centres of excellence for expanded opportunities

New Brunswick’s Department of Education and Early Childhood Development has launched two new centres of excellence that will support students and provide them with expanded experiential learning opportunities in entrepreneurship, health care, and social work. The centres will provide a space for students to access panel discussions, site visits, webinars, speaker series, industry training, co-op placements, and more. “Our province continues to experience labour force challenges, which is why these centres of excellence are essential to preparing students for the many opportunities available to them,” said NB Post-Secondary Education, Training and Labour Minister Trevor Holder. “Experiential learning is becoming increasingly important and these centres play a crucial role in the development and engagement of our future workers.” NB Note: Archived stories may contain dead links or be missing source links.
