International Work Experience (Work Experience outside Canada)
Students considering completing a work experience outside of Canada must complete the Intent to Complete International Work Experience Form (also on Connect) and an Orientation session offered by NSCC International. This form must be submitted before the last day of classes in the Fall semester to WorkExperience@nscc.ca. Students are asked to copy faculty on this email. Career & Employment Services will share the details on the form with the NSCC International Office. NSCC International will then connect with the student to discuss next steps.
Health & Safety
The health and safety of students travelling internationally for study is paramount, there are risks associated with travel to certain regions and countries due to social and local factors. Travel advice and advisories issued by the Government of Canada will be applied. The College may also deem other locations to be of very high risk and prohibit travel to those locations. These conditions are dynamic and must be evaluated prior to any international trip. As such, NSCC has the right to deny requests for any international work experience.
Insurance
When completing a work experience outside of Canada additional Student Guard insurance for students is mandatory and must be paid for by the student. The purchase of insurance can be coordinated through NSCC International. Please contact international@nscc.ca to arrange insurance coverage.
