Access to Global Learning

Kwantlen Polytechnic University (KPU) will expand the pursuit of learning and working abroad experiences among students by addressing financial barriers, fostering broader access to study abroad programs, and creating a culture shift to shape tomorrow’s leaders. Participation in a national project will place KPU among leading institutions championing international education to prepare students for the reality of today’s interconnected borders and mobilize them for an evolving local and global workforce. Through a needs-based award for target student groups and eligible students who go to non-traditional destinations, KPU will tackle the national challenges of learning and working abroad.
