  • 🌍 What an incredible experience at the WYSTC - The World Youth & Student Travel Conference in Lisbon last week! The Stepwest team had a fantastic time reconnecting with partners and colleagues, establishing new relationships, and attending valuable sessions that provided great insights for our programs. It was a busy few days of learning, collaboration, and plenty of fun with friends from across the world. And, of course, the cherry on top – our amazing colleagues at GeoVisions winning Best Work Experience Provider! 🎉 We couldn’t be more proud of their hard work and dedication to cultural exchange.

  • We have some news! 🎉 In an exciting new development for the global culinary community, Alliance Abroad and Stepwest, both members of the Alliance Strategies family, proudly announce the launch of the Culinary Francophone Program. This prestigious program will be officially introduced at the World Youth and Student Travel Conference (WYSTC) in Lisbon this week, setting the stage for talented French-speaking chefs to embark on transformative international careers in Canada. Participants will benefit from a comprehensive support package, including guaranteed job placements with vetted Canadian employers, assistance with visa and documentation, pre-departure orientation, and continuous in-country support. Chefs will receive guidance on everything from opening bank accounts to securing accommodation, ensuring they are fully prepared for life and work in Canada. Designed for chefs fluent in French and seeking to broaden their professional horizons, the Culinary Francophone Program offers an unparalleled opportunity to gain high-level international experience in some of Canada’s most renowned restaurants, resorts, and hotels. Through the Francophone Mobility visa, participants will enjoy exclusive access to top-tier culinary placements, opening doors to career growth and personal development while contributing to Canada’s culinary excellence. Jennifer Woodbridge, Regional Director of Alliance Abroad Australia & Middle East, highlighted the unique benefits this program offers to chefs looking to elevate their careers: "Chefs will not only work in Canada’s finest kitchens but will also immerse themselves in a multicultural environment, learning new techniques, exploring local flavours, and refining their craft alongside world-class professionals. It’s a gateway to new skills, new perspectives, and new opportunities." Thomas Prieur, CEO of Stepwest, emphasized the value these chefs will bring to Canada’s hospitality industry: "Canadian hospitality is recognized globally for its diversity, creativity, and high standards, and these chefs will be key contributors to that reputation. By bringing their unique skills, cultural influences, and culinary artistry, they will enhance the dining experience across Canada while filling critical roles in a sector that is rapidly growing and evolving." With Canada’s hospitality sector facing an increasing demand for skilled culinary professionals, the Culinary Francophone Program serves as a timely solution. The program aligns perfectly with the growing need for experienced chefs in diverse culinary settings across the country, from bustling urban centers like Vancouver to world-famous resort destinations such as Whistler and Banff.
