Find Work Placements Sooner

Minister of Jobs and Families, Steven MacKinnon, announced on March 21, 2025 that an additional 40,000 work-integrated learning opportunities across Canada through the Student Work Placement Program (SWPP). 

Approved organizations receive funding to offer work placements and innovative work-integrated learning opportunities – both in-person and virtual – to post-secondary students across Canada.

By funding work-integrated learning opportunities through the SWPP, the Government of Canada supports students in developing work-related skills and experience to complement the technical knowledge they obtain through their formal studies – supporting them in their transition from school to employment. These opportunities can include work placements (such as co-ops and internships) and innovative-work integrated learning opportunities (such as hackathons and micro-internships).

Career Coach Office Hours

David Feeney, a Career Coach in Western’s Careers & Experience office, will be holding office hours in University College for Arts & Humanities students.

Students can talk to David about anything career related, such as degree to career linkage, resumes and cover letters, next steps, etc. A&H students often don’t have a straight line from their degree to a career, and David can offer advice on how to prepare for the job market, articulate your transferable skills, and develop potential career paths.
