News

The College of the North Atlantic is partnering with Co-operative Education and Work-Integrated Learning (CEWIL) Canada to launch the One at a Time: Reducing Barriers to Work-Integrated Learning stipend program. This program will provide $1K to cover expenses including transportation, workplace attire, and childcare for eligible students participating in unpaid WIL courses during the Spring, Summer, or Fall 2024 semesters. “This program will allow students to get more out of their WIL experience by alleviating some of the barriers that many students experience,” said CNA Director of WIL Connections Ashley Nguyen. “[B]y removing some of the financial burden and stress that comes with unpaid WIL, students can focus on getting the most out of their experience!”
