General Info

Earn money in Canada

A placement in Canada gives you the perfect combination of earning money, improving your skiing and having a fantastic social life on your gap year!

You have probably heard the phrase ‘Work hard, play hard’ before. Well, we think this phrase must have come from Canada. All of the employers that we work with expect you to work hard. The standards set far exceed those in the UK. You will be required to be punctual, well presented and polite. By the same token, your employer will also want you to make the most of your days off work. One thing is for sure, there will be plenty of ways to spend your hard-earned wages in Canada! At the end of the season you will be in a fantastic location so why not take the time to explore a bit further afield.

You can choose between 3 resorts, all offering different opportunities. For full details click on one of the links below:
