Hibernia is supportive of education and training, particularly in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) because advances in technology are vital to the success of our company.
Getting students excited about STEM will result in more students pursuing studies in engineering, technology and trades which is important to our industry and our province. HMDC is collaborating with several community partners to enhance the educational opportunities of our youth with new or expanded programs for primary, elementary, junior high, high school and post-secondary students.
