Are you providing experiential learning opportunities for New Brunswick students?
We can help you connect with the right talent and access targeted supports.
Magnet and Future NB have partnered to connect students and employers in New Brunswick through experiential learning opportunities. Our goal is to help students combine education and experience to discover long-term career opportunities in the province. The partnership will also support employers in attracting new, workforce-ready talent.
Student Work Placement Program Benefits
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly changed Canada’s social and economic landscape, leaving a significant impact on hiring capacity, operations, and business growth opportunities.
SWPP is an opportunity for employers of all sizes and industries to build a talent pipeline while offsetting costs.
Future NB is proud to offer employers a platform to connect with students across all four publicly funded universities, in one place. Future NB Campus Connect allows employers to make one experiential learning posting and have it distributed to local university students.
