The
Youth Internship
(Private Sector) Program
objective is to encourage employers to provide recent
Eastern Ontario post-secondary school graduates under
the age of 30 years, with opportunities to develop
valuable skills during full-time work experiences within
small businesses that are conducting incremental,
project-based activities to increase and improve
competitiveness of the business. Ideally, these work
experiences would lead to permanent full-time employment
within Eastern Ontario. Legal commercial entities,
Aboriginal organizations, and associations or groups
representing business enterprises that are located in
and conducting business activity in Augusta,
Edwardsburgh/Cardinal, North Grenville and/or Prescott
are eligible to apply to GCFDC. The project activity to
be undertaken by the intern must be incremental activity
designed to increase and improve the competitiveness of
the business applicant. GCFDC may contribute
up to 50% of eligible costs up to a
maximum contribution that will normally not exceed
$2,500/mth per intern.
