Since September 2018, the Early Childhood Educators of BC (ECEBC), in partnership with the Province of British Columbia, enhanced and expanded the ECE Bursary Program, now known as the ECE Education Support Fund (ECE ESF). This program consists of two funding streams:
- The Early Childhood Education Student Bursary
- The Early Childhood Education Workforce Development Bursary
You can create an account anytime. View the semester details below for application start/intake information.

The Fall 2023 semester bursary intake is now closed – thank you to all who applied. The bursary staff will now be reviewing these applications and will let you know if we require any further information. If your application is complete you will receive an ‘accepted’ notification from us.
