International Experience Canada (IEC) provides youth with the opportunity to travel and work in Canada.

Applying for IEC
Canada has implemented a number of temporary measures, including travel restrictions, to help reduce the spread of COVID-19.
You can still travel to Canada under IEC if you have a current, valid job offer. Make sure you carefully look at the application process to ensure you
- meet the requirements
- can enter Canada
The pools for the 2021 season are now open. See if you’ll be able to submit your profile.
