The government is offering a tuition grant to qualified Bahamians to attend the Bahamas Technical and Vocational Institution (BTVI) as of the fall semester 2019, according to Minister of Education Jeffrey Lloyd during his communication in the House of Assembly.

The government has provided $4.1 million for this initiative, with the expectation of providing tuition grants to approximately 1,200 students attending or preparing to attend BTVI, which offers programs in New Providence, Grand Bahama, Abaco and Andros.

Recipients are not to be in possession of another award or scholarship at the time of application and the grant can be used for any of the certificate, diploma or associate degree programs offered at BTVI. This excludes short professional development courses.
