Through a two-year Memorandum of Understanding between The Jamaica National Group and the British High Commission in Jamaica, the Chevening/JN Oliver F Clarke scholarship will be awarded each year to support an outstanding Jamaican scholar to pursue post graduate studies in a designated course of study in the United Kingdom. The Chevening/JN Oliver F Clarke scholarship is the first Chevening partner award to be established in Jamaica.
