Youth Boost is an initiative to help young job seekers prepare for their career. With support from our partners, we’re proud to connect you with free resources and tools to help you build in-demand skills, strengthen your job search strategies, and make informed career decisions.
Youth Boost helps young job seekers build the digital and human skills they need to succeed.
Your free account gives you access to a series of learning labs, resources, and courses from our partners, all of which are developed to help you understand and build the skills that are in-demand by employers across different industries. You’ll also have access to resume and interview preparation tools.
Our goal is to help you strengthen your portfolio of skills and projects so you can demonstrate your readiness and experience to employers.
Employers share opportunities on our platform every day. Your account makes sure you don’t miss the jobs that match your skills, experience, and career goals.
Youth Boost will also connect users to paid placements offered through the Canadian Digital Adoption Program (CDAP) Boost Your Business Technology Grant, funded by the government of Canada. Participants will gain valuable experience implementing and managing technology solutions and strategies.
