Canada World Youth has just launched a brand-new guide to assist its participants in obtaining school credits: “The CWY Experience: Worth its Weight in Gold!” This document will help them present their CWY experience to their college or university.

“Recognition of our programs’ educational value is very important for CWY,” says Michel Banville, the organization’s Executive Director. “This new guide demonstrates our strong wish to see our participants’ skills recognized by their school or employer. And the partnerships we have already set up with educational institutions are tangible proof of our programs’ merits.”

Among our partners which offer academic credits to CWY participants are CÉGEP Marie-Victorin (Quebec), Dalhousie University (Nova Scotia), the University of Alberta’s Augustana Faculty and Capilano College (British Columbia).

To find out more about how your educational institution could give you credits for your CWY experience, read the guide! (PDF format)
