The International Experience Canada program has opened its application process for the 2021 season.

Candidates aged 18 to 35 from one of 34 participating countries can apply in one of three categories:

1. Working Holiday
2. International Co-Op (Internship)
3. Young Professionals

The IEC program is arranged using pools, with each participating country having an allocation of places under each of the three categories.

Some countries allow applications from the same candidate in different pools, others do not.

Applications are open as of March 1, 2021. Candidates who receive and accept an invitation to apply have 20 days to submit a full work permit application.
