BWCI celebrates 40th anniversary with bursaries

Tuesday 22 January 2019


2019 is a "very special year" according to the BWCI Group, as it marks its 40th Anniversary in the Channel Islands.

As part of a year of celebrations, the group said it was delighted to be offering an additional student bursary.

BWCI has already supported 12 local students since the bursary scheme was launched back in 2007. As well as financial support of £1,800 a year throughout the duration of the student’s course, the bursary also provides a structured programme of eight weeks’ paid work experience each summer.

The bursary is open to all locally qualified students website who have or who are predicted to achieve at least two A grades at A level, one of which must be Maths.

BWCI’s Senior HR Manager said: "Bursaries are a great way to provide practical support to local students. Several of our bursary students went on to join us permanently after graduating, including our very first bursary student, Jenny Martel who is now an assistant manager in our Pensions Administration team."

Students studying for degrees in Maths or Economics, or degrees with some Maths content will be given preference. The closing date for applications is Thursday 28 February.

Application forms are available from BWCI's website here.
