The CNFS recognizes their student ambassadors and bursary winners
February 16, 2018
The Consortium national de formation en santé - University of Ottawa section presented a dinner-conference to highlight the success of student bursary recipients and the contribution of CNFS ambassadors to aid the integration of first-year students on Wednesday, January 31st.
We would like to congratulate Esther Charbonneau, a student in the Nutrition program who received a bursary for her dissertation: « Quand c’est une question de santé » (When it's a health issue).
In the attached photo, Esther, holding her certificate, is accompanied by Dr. Susan Tosh, Director of the School of Nutritional Sciences, Dr. Isabelle Giroux, Program Director and Jacinthe Savard, who gave a copy of her book to each ambassador.
The purpose of the bursary program for students is to educate future professionals on the issue of the health of Francophone communities living in a minority context and to promote research on this topic.
We would like to congratulate our all students who participated and thank the CNFS for their support for training of health professionals in French!
