Dive into Adventure!

Work and Travel in Canada

The Canadian Working Holiday Program, also known as “CWHP”, is a program designed for applicants who want to come to Canada to work and travel without the need for a support letter by a Recognized Organization (RO). This program meets the demands of Canadian employers, while enabling international young people to earn some income to support their holiday in Canada. Go International provides valuable assistance to participants with settling in, finding a job and accommodation and getting to know Canada.

THIS PROGRAM DOES NOT INCLUDE A NOMINATION BY A RECOGNIZED ORGANIZATION!

This is for participants who are eligible to apply for the Canada Working Holiday visa directly through IRCC. Have a look at the website of the Canadian Government if you are eligible to apply directly for the work permit.

We are happy to assist you with the rest, such as finding a job, applying for your Social Insurance Number, and generally having a great time in Canada!

The Highlights

Spend an absolutely amazing vacation working in Canada and truly “experience” the people, the unique natural beauty and the adrenaline rush that you can only get from this country. Participants in the Working Holiday program meet locals, gain international work experience, earn money to travel and make the most of their working holiday in Canada with us.

Whether you are planning to be a ski bum, a city slicker, or an outdoor traveler… let us help you get a running start to your new adventure.

Did you know?

As part of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), the International Experience Canada (IEC) program facilitates travel and work opportunities for Canadian and foreign national youth. The program provides the opportunity to gain life-changing personal and professional experience by travelling and working in Canada or abroad. The mandate of IEC is to enhance key bilateral relationships between Canada and other countries and territories and emphasize the importance of improved participation reciprocity. IEC supports Canada’s economic and cultural interests by administering bilateral, reciprocal agreements and arrangements with 35 countries and territories (also known as youth mobility arrangements, or YMAs). Agreements and arrangements are generally open to Canadian and foreign youth aged 18 to 35.

Option To Add English / Career Training Programs

Participants in the Working Holiday Program have the option to add an English course, IELTS preparation course, and/or a career training diploma program in International Business, Entrepreneurship, Digital Marketing or Hospitality and Tourism to their work program. We suggest these optional study programs as a way to enhance your education, improve your employment prospects and provide you with additional skills and credentials to enhance your eligibility for Canadian immigration.
