CAP YI Across Canada
Industry Canada's CAP YI receives funding from Human Resources and Social Development Canada
(HRSDC) annually to hire youth between the ages of 15 to 30. Youth are hired either through
the Summer Work Experience stream or the Career Focus stream:
- Summer Work Experience targets students who were in school prior to the
internship and who are planning to return to school full-time after the internship. Funding
from the Summer Work Experience Stream may be spent in the summer, fall or winter; and
- Career Focus stream targets high-school graduates that have some post-secondary
education.
Youth work as interns at CAP Sites across Canada, helping individuals, community organizations
and small businesses improve their knowledge and effective use of the Internet and related
information technologies. Specific activities may include:
- Delivering Internet training sessions;
- Researching and developing Web sites;
- Drafting publicity materials;
- Organizing information fairs and special events; and
- Providing technical support to the CAP site.
