UPEI’s Student Union and Experiential Education department have partnered with Skills PEI to create the International Student Employment Support Program (ISESP). This program will offer a cohort of international students the opportunity to gain employability skills through a combination of professional development training and a paid internship this summer. 

In order to be eligible, international students must be finishing their first or second year of studies (having completed between 30 and 60 semester hours), living in Prince Edward Island for the duration of the program, and available to work during regular business hours. 

Training begins May 25th, followed by 11-week internships through the summer with local businesses, tailored to students’ career interests.

Applications close Sunday, May 16 at 11:59pm. Email any questions to experientialed@upei.ca.
