Help us improve and expand
work-integrated learning

To stay competitive in the wake of COVID-19, Canadian businesses will need talent with practical experience and future-relevant skills.

One of the most promising ways to do this is by expanding access to work-integrated learning (WIL).

Free stakeholder meetings
