Ansari Immigration: Your Gateway to the International Experience Class In Canada

Updated: Jun 2


 

If you’re a young adult aged between 18 and 35, the International Experience Class in Canada (IEC) program is your chance to explore Canada and fund your travels by working. As a designated program under the Canadian government’s Youth Mobility Arrangements (YMA), IEC is looking for new partner countries and organizations to increase the number of participants and fill gaps in some sectors of Canada’s workforce.


According to an internal Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) memo from September 26, 2022, the global quotas for IEC admissions in 2023 have risen to nearly 90,000 participants. IRCC has recommended that the 2023 partner quotas stay at 2022 levels, but the global quota should be increased by 20% to 88,500.


Canada currently relies on the high number of IEC participants to help fill gaps in the labor force. IEC participants typically fill jobs in the service sector, including food services and accommodation, and retail. The memo says that many employers, especially in the service sector, depend on IEC to satisfy their labor needs.
