Access to career support services varies greatly across the Canadian secondary school system. As a result, students who win elite scholarships often come from similar schools or were lucky enough to find mentorship on their own. DreamNow has partnered with Pearson College to address this challenge and produce the Scholarship Training Series: a series of events and an information guide aimed at democratizing access to the information needed to apply and win community-based scholarships. Over the course of the last several years this guide has been used by over 5,000 Canadian students and has helped students win over 1 million dollars in scholarship money.
