Intervenir auprès de personnes autistes en orientation : comprendre, communiquer et agir
July 30, 2026
CERIC is accepting applications for the 2026–2027 Graduate Student Engagement Program (GSEP), which supports the academic and professional development of master’s and doctoral students whose research relates to career development.
GSEP exists to connect the next generation of career development researchers with the wider field, and to give them practical support to share their work and build their networks. Members join a cohort of peers from across the country and work with recognized experts in the field, with access to CERIC’s platforms and resources.
Graduate students accepted into the program will:
- Contribute articles to the CareerWise website and the Canadian Journal of Career Development
- Present a poster on their research at Cannexus, Canada’s largest bilingual career development conference, and take part in the full event
- Participate in a community of practice with fellow graduate students, researchers and mentors
- Join one of CERIC’s Advisory Committees
- Be profiled on the CERIC website and through social media
Members are also eligible to compete for the GSEP Award, which carries a $1,000 prize and complimentary registration for Cannexus.
Both full-time and part-time students enrolled at a Canadian university are eligible. Students come from a range of disciplines – career development, counselling psychology, adult education, sociology, human resources and others – and are encouraged to apply if their research connects to career development.
Not sure whether GSEP is the right fit? This article in the Canadian Journal of Career Development looks at the challenges graduate students face during their studies and how the program supports them through engagement, mentorship and a stronger sense of belonging in the field.
The deadline to apply is October 9, 2026. Consult the details and how to apply.
