23848 - Production of Video Assets to Promote THRC’s Work-Integrated Learning Program

As part of a federally funded initiative, Tourism HR Canada is seeking to engage the expert services of a firm to develop a number of digital assets to help promote Tourism HR Canada’s new Student Work-Integrated Learning program, Propel. This new program benefits the full spectrum of the visitor economy as it emerges from the impact of COVID. Students gain paid hands-on learning and mentoring in their field of study. Employers acquire much-needed early talent to help with the recovery of the industry, as well as assistance with wages after an 18-month stretch of little or no income. Post-secondary institutions complement their programming by connecting students and the workplace. Funded by the Government of Canada through the Student Work Placement Program, Propel offers employers a wage subsidy of up to 75% of a qualifying student’s wages, to a maximum of $7,500. Students enrolled at a recognized post-secondary institution can apply for a paid position to fulfil the co-op or internship component of their program.
