The world of work is rapidly changing. In fact, many of the jobs that will be around in the future do not even exist yet. The Future of Work program is for teens who want to get a step ahead in learning about the world of work and the industries that are leading in creativity and innovation. Meet with business owners and executives to hear their success stories and receive support from our skilled staff as you begin to build your future.

Campers will become “global citizens” who have an international understanding of the world of business, strengthened English and communication skills, as well as strong core values to guide them in their future business and personal endeavours.
