Public School Students

Giving young stars a chance to shine


Future NB aims to provide all students in the province’s public-school system the chance to engage in experiential learning opportunities prior to graduation.

Rich and authentic experiential learning opportunities benefit New Brunswick students by:

  • Providing opportunities to experience multiple career pathways in a practical work setting prior to graduation
  • Highlighting the link between academics and the world of work, including high-demand sectors, skills and global competencies
  • Expanding students’ community connection, networks and the occasion for mentorship

This is made possible through one or more of the opportunities below:

  • Field trips/familiarization tours
  • Employer speaking opportunities
  • Job shadowing
  • Classroom activities- subject matter experts, problem based learning activities
  • Co-op placements
  • Mentorship
  • Other – we’d love to hear from you!

Future NB is committed to working with young students in the province and showing them all the ways that they can succeed here at home.
