Bridging Mechanisms
Recognizing the importance of student employment to Public Service renewal,
two merit-based bridging mechanisms exist
to allow the appointment of students who have been hired into the Public
Service under the FSWEP, RAP, or CO-OP programs.
1. Advertised Mechanism
The advertised mechanism permits students to apply in internal appointment processes when the following conditions apply:
- persons appointed within Student Employment Programs are specifically included in the area of selection determined for the internal appointment process being held;
- he/she meets all other criteria of the area of selection; and
- the student is able to demonstrate that he/she is capable of completing the post-secondary program or vocational training program in which he/she was registered at the time of his/her most recent appointment within the Student Employment Programs, within the time frame indicated on the advertisement.
2. Non-Advertised Mechanism
In December 2005, when the new Public Service Employment Act is implemented, the PSC's former without competition bridging mechanism disappears. Deputy Heads may introduce this mechanism into their non-advertised appointment frameworks. We continue to encourage organizations to follow the spirit and principles of current student bridging mechanisms.
