Yes, and the busiest students tend to perform best because they're forced to be efficient. The program is designed to run part-time during school and full-time in the summer. Part of being in the program is having a coach who works directly with you in the field and online to work on your business and personal life. Time management is a core skill in being a successful leader and will be a major topic of conversation in the program. You don't grow by adding easy things to a light schedule; you grow by learning to expand what you can handle.

Students make money by running their own home service business: hiring and managing a crew that completes projects like interior and exterior painting, window cleaning, and more.

The program is free to start, no upfront cost you can lose. The only deposit is $330 for materials, which is refundable upon program completion.

Student Works is recognized by Manage HR Magazine as the Top Canadian Leadership Development Training/Coaching Company 2022. This program has existed for 45 years, with alumni now leading some of the top companies in Canada.

You'll need reliable access to a vehicle: part-time during the first few months, full-time in the summer. Every year, students figure this out: buying a cheap car and selling it after, borrowing one part-time, splitting costs with someone. It's a solvable problem and something we help you think through on the strategy call.

Bring it up on your intro call. We'll walk you through exactly how to have that conversation and provide a full program resource you can share with them directly. Most parents just need to actually see what this is, and the resource we give you does most of the talking.

Sales, marketing, recruiting, managing a team, leadership, project management, time management, client relations, and how to manage money. The skills AI can't replace and employers can't ignore.

98% of alumni find full-time employment within 9 months of graduation. Our students have gone on to work at McKinsey, SAP, Adobe, Salesforce, Coca-Cola, and other industry leaders. The skills you build here are real: sales, leadership, managing a team, and handling your own finances. Employers know the difference between someone who's done it and someone who's read about it.

Neither did most of our students. We remove the experience barrier to give young, driven people the opportunity to learn and build something real.
