Dalhousie University is facing an $18M budget shortfall attributed to lower international enrolment and, as a result, has announced a hiring freeze that is expected to run until at least the end of March 2025. It affects regular and ongoing positions, in addition to term, temporary and casual faculty and staff positions.

The Lycée international français Don Bosco Halifax, International French School, officially opened in early September. This unique “Salesian” school is the ninth in Canada, but it is the first in the Atlantic provinces. For this first school year, the school employs eight teachers.
The Alliance française d’Halifax is now offering Haligonians the opportunity to benefit from a new bursary named “Coup de Pouce” for five 10-week sessions instead of only one 10-week session to learn French. This bursary will give irregular workers more flexibility and time to improve their language skills.
Saint Mary's University in Halifax is scheduled to close its English-language training centre on May 1, 2024. The closure, which impacts about 24 staff and instructors, is due to declining demand for English-as-a-second-language (ESL) training at the school and a steady shift to private-sector providers.
