If you are interested in exporting or increasing your company’s market share in international markets, a valuable resource is now at your disposal – the Export Internship for Trade Graduates.
This initiative is designed to provide training and employment opportunities to international trade specialists graduating from Atlantic Canadian universities and colleges. In addition, it helps small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to acquire the inhouse expertise they need to successfully develop and implement an international marketing plan.
The Export Internship for Trade Graduates is one of five components of the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency’s Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (ATIP).
ACOA will provide 75% of salary and benefit costs (to a maximum of $25,000) for each trade graduate during his or her internship.
At the conclusion of the internship, the employer may apply under ACOA’s Business Development Program for assistance to retain the graduate’s services for up to three additional years as
a marketing manager.
