What is the Youth Internship Program?
The Youth Internship Program (YIP), offered through CHRC in partnership with Human Resources Development Canada (Career Focus) and the Department of Canadian Heritage (Building Careers in Heritage) provides opportunities for non-profit, public and for-profit arts and heritage organisations to hire emerging cultural workers for a 4 to 12 month internship. It also helps post-secondary graduates to obtain career-related work opportunities in culture to gain the skills, work experience and abilities they need to make a successful transition to the workplace.
