Student Career Skills Development Program

The Student Career Skills Development Program (SCSDP) partners with not-for-profit organizations to create career-related summer jobs for post-secondary students. The jobs will be distributed across the province based on population and unemployment for each county.

The SCSDP is an important part of making sure our businesses are innovative and competitive, and our students have the right skills for good jobs. We want to make sure we support jobs that develop transferrable skills that can be used in today's fast paced and competitive job market.

To meet this objective, this year we are requesting complete details of positions that apply for funding. Access to this program is limited, so employers will continue to compete for the number of positions available.
