Now in its fourth year, the Propel Student Work Placement Program has connected hundreds of post-secondary students with paid, hands-on learning in a wide range of travel, tourism, and hospitality workplaces, right across Canada.

Coordinated by Tourism HR Canada, the program offers students in any discipline the opportunity to build upon their knowledge and skills—and make valuable connections—in an industry that is thriving as people worldwide catch up on travel. Thanks to funding from the Government of Canada, the program offers employers wage subsidies for each qualifying student they hire.

The Propel team is pleased to share with you the following details on the program, plus a suite of success stories from both students and employers.

Please feel free to share these resources with your colleagues in any department, as students from programs beyond travel and tourism have benefited from Propel placements—marketing, HR, business administration, accounting, IT, and more.
