This is a placeholder experience where you can express your interest in participating in Advance Ontario by submitting a project match request. We are not accepting official match requests at this time. If your project is a good fit, we will reach out to request a match once the official experience is open.

Advance Ontario connects eligible Ontario post-secondary students with remote, interdisciplinary projects to build in-demand skills. Ontario employers mentor students through paid 60-hour projects over 2-8 weeks. Powered by Riipen, the program promotes workforce diversity and aims to create lasting job opportunities while boosting Ontario’s economy.

Employers: 

• Employers can submit one project for consideration. When developing your project, keep in mind that you can hire up to four students.
• If you’re interested in participating in an upcoming Advance Ontario cohort, submit your project match request here.

By submitting a request, you will be one of the first to be notified when a new Advance Ontario experience becomes available. At that time, we will reach out and request to match with your project.

Note: No students will be added to this placeholder experience.

Projects require clearly defined deliverables outlined in the project description. Deliverables include the working documents and the final project uploaded for review and payment. This may encompass source code, presentations, marketing materials, etc.
