Youth Leadership Camp (Mount Allison University)

Our Youth Leadership Camp runs annually at Mt. A University in Sackville, and celebrated its 60th year of operation in July 2019.  

Since its beginning, this camp has provided "Leadership Training" for over 5000 young NB students (grades 10 & 11) from every part of the province.  Leadership camp is not an activity or sport but a camp whereby leadership skills are developed through a wide variety of activities.  Sports skills are the primary activites used throughout the camp.  

Leadership qualities and personal characteristics of leadership will be nurtured throughout the week long camp.  The most important outcome of this camp experience will be growth in personal and interpersonal leadership skills, knowledge and values.  These outcomes typically will include improvement in communication.

The Seafarers’ Training Institute with partners in the shipping industry, including the Seafarers’ International Union of Canada, has launched a national hiring initiative to bring on board the next generation of Canadian seafarers. As part of the initiative, STI is looking to connect with high schools, to create awareness about a career as a seafarer. STI would like to speak in careers classes, trade related classes (auto, woodworking) or participate in any college events the high schools might be holding.
 
As a seafarer, or more commonly known as sailor, new recruits can expect stability, adventure and pride. The career offers high earning potential, free training with room and board, a pension, benefits and a variety of jobs to pick from. These are just a few of the perks seafarers enjoy.
