Alberta Union of Provincial Employees Bursary (Endowment Fund)

The Alberta Union of Provincial Employees Bursary supports full-time students at Red Deer Polytechnic who have connections to AUPE membership. This endowment fund provides financial assistance to students who are AUPE members in good standing with at least one consecutive year of membership, or dependents or spouses of such members. The bursary recognizes both academic achievement and financial need, helping students continue their education at Red Deer Polytechnic. Two awards of $300 each are available annually. Dependents of retired or deceased AUPE members may apply within ten years of retirement or death, and consideration is also given to past AUPE members who enroll full-time within the first year following job elimination.
