Secure the future of Canadian students, communities, and businesses.
Too many students graduate into underemployment. Too many businesses can’t find the talent they need. Supporting I-WIL (Innovative Work-Integrated Learning Initiatives) funding can change that.
When students succeed, businesses thrive and communities grow stronger.

When students get access to paid, real-world opportunities, they graduate ready to contribute. Businesses gain skilled, motivated people who can help right away. Families and communities benefit when young people can build stable careers close to home.
But right now, funding for such initiatives is short term and unreliable. That means fewer opportunities, less planning for businesses and more students left underemployed.
A multi year commitment to I-WIL funding is the solution. It ensures programs don’t start and stop, but grow, support more learners, and strengthen our local economies.
