Career Ready Program | TECHNATION

none

Value

Receive up to $7000 per student and subsidize their wage.

Description

TECHNATION’s Career Ready Program supports students to have meaningful work and provides businesses an affordable way to scale up their tech talent. With funding from the Government of Canada’s Student Work Placement Program (SWPP), we provide subsidies for businesses of any size, all across Canada, to hire students in tech-immersive roles.

Eligible Applicants

Employer

  • You’re a registered Canadian business or organization.
  • You’re not a federal or provincial government group

  • You’re not hiring a student who is an immediate family member
  • You’re not a post-secondary institution, bank or large financial sector employer, or a federal, provincial, or municipal government
  • You follow the Net New rule

Net new is determined by subtracting the number of students your company is intending to hire (forecast) in the current fiscal year, including those already hired, from the number of students hired by your company in a fiscal year prior to first participating in this program (baseline).

Eligible Expenses

The program provides 50% (to a maximum of $5000.00) of a student’s pay in wage subsidies to employers.

An increased subsidy of 70% (to a maximum of $7000.00) is awarded to employers hiring students from under-represented groups:
