Great to join Minister Kelly Regan, Minister Zach Churchill, MLA Yarmouth and MP Geoff Regan, at Play, Learn, Grow in Bedford for a great announcement.
Funding from the Canada-Nova Scotia early learning and child care bilateral agreement will be used to create 135 new seats in the early childhood education program at Nova Scotia Community College – NSCCC. There will also be a temporary tuition program to support Nova Scotans who attend an early childhood education program at one of three private career colleges in the province!
