All CIM Sudbury branch donations are made for the betterment of students. The branch is a major supporter of the Regional Science Fair, whereby the winners of the regional elementary and secondary school competitions are able to attend the nation-wide science fair thanks to the support of the CIM Sudbury Branch. Secondary, and even elementary, school students are given further opportunities in respect to mining education, i.e. attendance at luncheons and conferences in the area which are complimentary of the branch, books and activity kits referencing mining which are purchased and then accessed through the schools' libraries.

 

At the post-secondary level, the branch offers bursaries to students at Laurentian University, Cambrian College and Collège Boréal. Another focus of the branch is promoting public awareness of the mining and minerals industries. Modern Mining & Technology Sudbury Week provides the opportunity to promote the industry at a higher level. The branch donates funds on a yearly basis to allow secondary students to experience Dynamic Earth’s Path of Discovery Tour of local mines and its related industries. Close ties are maintained between the branch and the local mining schools allowing the students greater access to information and the local industry, and helping to promote students’ entry into related fields of study.
