MarineWorx Program and eligibility
Thanks to the support of industry, our objective is to provide a $2,000 transportation and / or accommodation bursaries (please note there are 5 available) for students taking the 8 month, MTME marine technicians program beginning in September of 2019 at the Georgian College - Midland Campus. For further details on the program click below.
Student travel must exceed 100 KM distance from their home to the Midland campus and must be referred by a Boating Ontario member.
Making it happen is simple, any Boating Ontario member can refer a student, even if they are not working for the business yet. It is as simple as a quick email to Duane McKay or phone call 1-888-547-6662 with a students’ name and contact info - before August 15th and the association along with a taskforce will take it from there.
