    Overview

    Are you interested in new experiences, upgrading your career skills and meeting like minded people? Consider FuturePerfect, a new 14-week employment training program for those looking to build up their employability skills.

    FuturePerfect by Katimavik, is a new program which supports youth (ages 18 – 30) at the start of their careers. The program sets up youth from across the country with real employers in our host communities for 3 months of fully funded, fully supported work. This means that Katimavik will cover participants living expenses for the duration of the program, while they get to keep their hard-earned money!

    Applicants are asked to submit their resume and cover letter along with any other relevant experience and using this information Katimavik will pair applicants with an employer in one of our host communities. Youth are supported by a Job Developer throughout the whole program, and will not only gain valuable job experience, but also learn valuable career and employment-based skills.

    The employment placements for our cohorts until March 2024 are in Quebec City and are in the tourism sector exclusively. Cohorts begin every January, May and September and run for a duration of 14-weeks. The program is open to all youth who are the legal age of majority in their province of origin (18 or 19) up to the age of 30 and who are Canadian citizens, permanent residents or have landed refugee status in Canada.
