Are applicants entitled to Educational Leave if they receive a Scholarship?
The Pacific Leaders Scholarship program has no correlation or connection to an educational leave application. Applicants apply to their own ministry/organization which will consider a leave application as a completely separate request and will view it in reference to a number of related considerations in alignment with the relevant collective agreement and the Learning and Development policy statement. An applicant’s ministry/organization is not obligated to provide educational leave, either paid or unpaid. Also look under Learning and Development Guidelines on the @Your Service site.
