The Canadian Council of Archives (CCA) would like to remind colleagues in the archival community and the library community (libraries operating in English) that the 2020 campaign for the Young Canada Works (YCW) internships is underway, and that there are only a few days left before the deadline. The YCW program is funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage in support of the Government of Canada’s Youth Employment and Skills Strategy.

Archival institutions as well as libraries operating in English are able to apply online for internships via the YCW official web site (http://young-canada-works.canada.ca).

The deadline to submit your internship applications to CCA is March 1st, 2020.

The Young Canada Works at Building Careers in Heritage program permits an employer to hire a college or university graduate.  The job must provide full-time hours (minimum 30 hours per week) for a minimum of 16 weeks and end at the latest on March 31st, 2021.

Please visit our web site (http://www.archivescanada.ca/YCW) for information and for access to the Employer Guide and online application.

If you have any questions concerning your internship application in the archival field, do not hesitate to contact Louise Charlebois at ycw_jct@archivescanada.ca.
