Study or Work in a Francophone Community: “Explore” and “Odyssey” Online Information Session


DATE
Thursday January 18, 2024
TIME
3:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Are you a Canadian citizen or permanent resident looking to improve your English or French through immersion in a bilingual francophone community?

Join an online information session about the Official Languages Programs on January 18, 2024 from 3:00-4:00 PM on Zoom to learn about two amazing government-funded opportunities to become bilingual in a francophone community across Canada:

Explore allows you to spend 31-33 days in the spring or summer exploring life in a new city, immersed in a different culture, all while learning to speak French or English! Tuition fees, lodging, meals, instructional materials, workshops, and cultural activities are covered by the Canadian government.

Odyssey is a 9-month program in Quebec or New Brunswick that offers you, as a paid language assistant, a position in a classroom setting and the opportunity to practice your French-speaking skills while helping students learn English. Odyssey pays approximately $27/hr, holiday pay, and other benefits.
