Education must prepare students not just for graduation, but for life beyond school.
Ontario is investing $4 million through new partnerships with the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award – Canada and the King’s Trust Canada to expand student access to experiential learning opportunities.
When students have opportunities to put their learning into practice, they leave school better prepared, no matter the career path they choose.

Liftoff.
