Yukon post-secondary students can now apply for summer 2025 STEP jobs

Published 20/01/2025

The Student Training and Employment Program (STEP) is now open for applications from students who are looking for employment this coming summer. The Government of Yukon is accepting applications for all STEP roles until February 7, 2025.

The program provides students with a way to earn a wage while gaining work experience in their field of study. Yukon students are guaranteed at least 32 hours of work per week and between 450 and 600 hours of work from May 1 to September 1, 2025.

Students may apply for more than one position in their application. The programs and courses the student is taking should relate to the field of study listed on the job. Applicants must meet the definition of a Yukon post-secondary student as outlined in the application form.

Any questions about the process can be directed to [email protected]. Information about all available roles is at Yukon.ca/STEP.
