The Experience Ventures program operates with accessibility and flexibility in mind. As facilitated by the Government of Canada, Experience Ventures is delivered with a digital-first approach for a few reasons: ▶︎ Offering the program digitally creates the flexibility the program strives to offer busy students who might not otherwise have access to a work-integrated learning opportunity. ▶︎ The world is continually changing, and the way we work is changing. A digital-first approach allows students, ventures, and post-secondary institutions to expand their reach and make meaningful connections. ▶︎ In line with our mission to help students gain career ready skills, a digital-first approach helps foster student autonomy, independence, and effective time management.   This approach is one of our core pillars, and is one that makes Experience Ventures different. 💡   Visit www.experienceventures.ca to learn more about the program.
