WHAT IS THIS PROGRAM?

Discover another region of Canada while learning French. Explore is a five-week intensive language-learning course. You can take the course in the spring or summer, whichever you prefer. You can also take a job for the rest of the summer, if you wish. Participants in Explore receive a $2,200 bursary (taxable income) that covers tuition fees for the course, instructional materials, meals, and accommodation. The educational institution you will be attending receives the bursary directly. Explore offers courses adapted to your level (beginner, intermediate, or advanced), as well as many activities that allow you to meet others from across the country who wish to improve their French.

LEARN FRENCH AND MAKE MONEY!

The YMCA Summer Work Student Exchange is a unique national exchange program that brings together youth from various communities across the country. Participating youth, aged 16 and 17, have the opportunity to improve their second official language skills, and gain important employment experience through a work placement while on their exchange.

Within local participating communities, other community partners such as exchange hosts, employers, our summer staff and the community at large also contribute to the program and benefit from participation. In 6 short weeks over the summer, participants go on a journey that will forever impact their life.
