On Monday, the government of New Brunswick said they’re encouraging Grade 12 students to get an early start on their post-secondary education by enrolling in distance learning offered through the spring and summer intersession courses.

This move to start early has begun in partnership with the University of New Brunswick, St. Thomas University, Mount Allison University and the Université de Moncton.

“Even though schools across the province are closed, we remain committed to helping students continue their education,” said Education and Early Childhood Development Minister Dominic Cardy.
