2020 BAYCREST IMPACT 35
Our Learning and Development Award Program covers a broader range of learning
opportunities and offers more financial support. Staff can apply for up to $5,000 to
earn diplomas or degrees, attend conferences or travel to learn from the best in their
field. There is also an opportunity for groups to apply for up to $10,000. This program
has an assessment component, in which each application is evaluated by a team of
leaders from across the organization. In December 2019, a total of more than $170,000
was given to over 130 grateful Baycrest staff to support their learning and development
goals.
This program is made possible through the generous donors who provide ongoing
funding for these awards, including:
