Lethbridge Polytechnic Presentation 19 Sep 2024
Presentation:Work Integrated Learning (WIL) program offered at Lethbridge Polytechnic
 
The WIL program invites businesses and non-profit organizations to tap into the talent and creativity of a student, or group of students, to work on a project.
The students will initially volunteer 10-15 hours, which may be followed up with 30-40 hours of course work (unpaid) and could then lead to a practicum placement.
A great way to connect students to our businesses and organizations to benefit all concerned!
