Introduction to the Talent Opportunities Program
Is your organization hiring a post-secondary student on a work-integrated learning program this summer?
In partnership with the Ontario Chamber of Commerce, businesses can get access to wage subsidies of up to $5,000 for hiring a post-secondary student on paid work-integrated learning (WIL) placements (e.g. co-ops, internships) through the Talent Opportunities Program (TOP).
Employers who hire students on WIL placements report benefits such as:
- Support for short-term workflow pressures
- Access to the latest learnings
- Improved productivity and service delivery
- Early access to talent pipelines
The OCC is now accepting wage subsidy applications for the Summer 2026 Term (May 1 to August 31).
Funding for this program is limited and spots fill up quickly, so we encourage you to apply soon. Click the link below to apply or visit our website for more information here.
