International Experience Canada (IEC)​

International Experience Canada (IEC) provides young individuals with the exciting opportunity to live and work in Canada for up to 2 years through three distinct categories: Working Holiday, Young Professionals, and International Co-op (Internship). Citizens of partner countries can apply directly to IEC or opt for support from Recognized Organizations (ROs), which are Canadian-based entities assisting both foreign nationals and Canadian youth in navigating the process of working and traveling internationally under the IEC program. Whether seeking a cultural adventure, professional development, or hands-on experience in their field, IEC offers a diverse range of opportunities for international exploration and growth.

International Experience Canada (IEC) offers opportunities for young people from participating countries to temporarily live and work in Canada. If successful, applicants can apply for a Canadian work permit without needing a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). IEC permits a temporary stay in Canada with work permits approved for up to one year. The approval of IEC work permits follows a randomized draw system, meaning not all expressions of interest are selected. Success depends on the quota for each program and country.

IEC consists of three separate programs, each with unique requirements and resulting in different forms of work authorization. While there are general requirements for IEC, applicants should verify the specific criteria for each program. To be eligible for International Experience Canada, applicants must be within the accepted age range (usually up to 35 years old) for their country's program, and their country must have an agreement with Canada allowing them to apply for a work permit.
