There are many postings out there offering environmentally focused summer jobs and internships with a variety of experience needed. It is our focus to post opportunities that allow people to stay in the Boundary Region; it has been suggested that we post Province wide opportunities too realizing the benefit of gaining the necessary experience.

We will try and remove the posting when the deadline has passed. If you have any questions about the posting please contact the organization directly.
