The Business + Higher Education Roundtable (BHER) has received a three-year, $9.4M investment from the Government of Canada to strengthen Canada’s WIL ecosystem. The funds will be used to expand WIL opportunities in strategic sectors like clean tech, construction, and digital transformation; and engage employers through BHER’s national network. This investment will create WIL opportunities for an additional 8,000 students, with a key focus on Francophone and equity-deserving student groups. Students will get on-the-job experience and become workforce ready while employers will gain access to skilled talent.
