Student goals and capabilities

Undergraduate, graduate, continuing education, certificate, diploma, part-time and full-time students are all encouraged to apply.

The Level UP program (powered by Riipen) allows employers to bring on Canadian post-secondary students for 80-hour paid projects. Students are paid a $1400 CAD stipend on completion of the project by Riipen. Employers are not required to provide payment. Read more about the program here.

Submit a project here for our Level UP coordinators to review. Once approved, students will apply to your project directly - individually, or in teams. Students may be from any Canadian post-secondary institution, and in any academic program. Get specific in your project description about the skills you're looking for in order to attract the most suitable applicants.

Expected outcomes and deliverables

While deliverables will vary depending on the project scope, at the conclusion of the project you should have a completed report or other assets that you can use to further your business goals. Maintaining communication with students throughout the project will lead to better results.

Project Examples

Projects should be approximately 80 hours in length, though our coordinators can work with you to resize the project as needed.

See available project areas in the Level UP portal, here.

If your project does not fit in one of the specified areas (Marketing, Web Development, Data Analysis, Human Resources, Sales, etc.) submit the project here for our review. Most projects will be suitable if they can be completed remotely, will provide an opportunity for students to build skills, and can be completed in approximately 80 hours.

Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:

Be available for a discussion with the Level UP coordinator to initiate your relationship and confirm your scope in an appropriate fit for the internship

Review student applications and accept or decline applications within 30 days. (Recommended 14 days)

Provide ongoing support and mentorship to students throughout the project.

Define the project scope up front to the best of your abilities, limiting scope changes once students are approved for the project.
