The Canadian Corps of Commissionaires is committed to supporting and giving back to its employees.
The National Bursary Program assists employees and their immediate family members with the cost of post-secondary education. In honour of its Centennial year, the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires is awarding more students with bursaries. 15 x $2,500 bursaries are available for the 2025/26 academic year, which are made possible with the support of our partners, The Bank of Montreal and The Personal, and funding from our 15 Divisions.
Deadline for submissions: July 6, 2025
To be deemed eligible, applicants must:
- be employed full or part-time as a commissionaire (having completed a minimum six months of work and be serving at the time of the application) or be an immediate family member of a qualifying commissionaire (spouse, child, step-child, grandchild or step-grandchild);
- have been accepted into a Canadian, government recognized, post-secondary institution (universities, colleges, and vocational schools where high school completion is the normal entrance prerequisite);
- have a valid Social Insurance Number (SIN); and
- not be a previous recipient of the National Bursary Program.
This educational bursary award is for one year and is not renewable. A successful Division-level bursary application does not preclude application for the National-level bursary. Unsuccessful applicants are encouraged to re-apply in following years.
Successful recipients will be notified by August 8, 2025. Cheques will then be sent no later than August 16, 2025 to the educational institutions of successful applicants.
Questions regarding this application and / or the application process may be directed via e-mail [email protected].
This form must be filled out by a full or part-time employee of the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires at the time of application on behalf of the applicant.
