Carleton University Experiential Learning (CUAEL) Project
Carleton University has a new experiential learning project recently funded by the Government of Ontario’s Career Ready Fund called, the Carleton University Accessible Experiential Learning (CUAEL) Project. The CUAEL project supports eligible students to work on or off-campus in subsidized employment opportunities. We welcome the opportunity to work with you to determine how a CUAEL placement would benefit the growth and success of your organization.
