| This program provides funding for youth from rural areas to visit urban areas to explore
the educational facilities and available career opportunities. The Intra-Provincial Travel
Program helps young people make more informed decisions about their future and to
help them become familiar with post-secondary institutions and larger centers. The
program is open to students in Level I, II, and III and is administered through the school
system. Youth from more isolated communities are given first priority and the program
assists with the transportation costs only. A teacher chaperone is responsible for
coordinating all travel and accommodation arrangements for the group. It is
recommended that there be one chaperone on the trip for every 10-15 students. The
deadline for applying is November 30 of each calendar year.
