Canada’s immigration department has updated the list of recognized organizations that provide services under the International Experience Canada program.
The approved organisations provide services for a fee to both Canadians going abroad and foreign nationals coming to Canada.

A new agreement was struck in September to allow Canadians aged between 18 and 35 to work for up to a year in San Marino, a republic located within the Italian peninsula.
Reciprocal rights will also be afforded to residents of San Marino.
The new rights come following the signing of a Working Holiday Youth Mobility Arrangement as part of International Experience Canada.
Canada has similar arrangements with 32 other countries, giving citizens the freedom to experience other cultures, other ways of doing business and to learn new languages.
