International Experience Canada (a program of the Government of Canada) provides Canadian youth with the opportunity to broaden their perspective of the world and Canada’s place in it through international travel and work experiences that enrich their careers and help build a competitive global workforce that contributes to Canada’s economic success.  The program also fosters people to people ties and strengthens relationships between Canada and partner countries.  We have reciprocal youth mobility agreements with over 30 countries, which give Canadian youth a simplified work permit access to work and travel abroad for up to two years.
