The Ontario Global Edge Program is an international competitive internship program[1] which allows postsecondary students aged 19 to 29 to gain international work experience.[2] It was created and funded by the Government of Ontario.
The program sends students to a variety of locations around the world, including Hong Kong and Germany.[3]
As part of the March 2008 Ontario Budget, the Global Edge program was announced with funding of $1.7 million over four years, to facilitate international work and learning opportunities for enterprising post-secondary students.[4]
Currently, nine schools are approved to offer the Global Edge program.[5]
