TYPE of WIL: WORK EXPERIENCE

What is Work Experience?

Intersperses one or two work terms (typically full-time) into an academic program, where work terms provide experience in a workplace setting related to the student’s field of study and/or career goals. Please click here to access the WIL Definitions print-friendly resource.

We have also developed a document that outlines in detail how work experience engages students and benefits employers. CLICK HERE to access this document.
