Students who enroll in programs that are offered through one of Drayton Valley’s post-secondary institution partners that result in a credential are eligible to receive funding through the Zero Fee Tuition Assistance Program. Click here to read the full Zero Fee Tuition Assistance Policy.

Eligibility

1. To be eligible for tuition funding consideration, applicants must prove their residence at an address located in the Town of Drayton Valley, Alberta, Canada. This proof of residency requirement will be confirmed through Driver’s License or other valid government-issued ID, such as a passport. Other proof of residency documentation could include a current lease agreement or utility bill. While funding priority will be given to residents, applicants residing outside of the Town of Drayton Valley may be eligible for funding for post-secondary programs/ courses that include an in-person component at the CETC or other training facility within the Town of Drayton Valley.|

    

2. The Town of Drayton Valley may fund tuition costs for eligible post-secondary education courses within a program offered by partner institutions that results in or transfers to a locally or nationally recognized certification. Non-tuition related expenses (e.g., fees, supplies, books, etc.) are not eligible for funding through this program.

    

3. The Town of Drayton Valley will consider funding post-secondary tuition for individuals after other funding options have been exhausted (including, but not limited to, federal, provincial, and local grants/ bursaries). In the case where other funding options are available, the Town of Drayton Valley may consider paying the remainder of the tuition costs not covered by those other funding options.

    

4. Proof of program admission and course enrolment, as well as application(s) & decisions for other funding opportunities and/or documentation from the institution on behalf of the student stating that the student does not qualify/ only partially qualifies for other funding options, may be required.
