Why Shad Valley
|
Since 1981, the Shad Valley program has been helping top students in senior high school find an edge in the competitive, knowledge-based world of tomorrow. It's an experience unlike anything else you've seen; it combines entrepreneurship with science and technology, and offers academic and often paid work experience to its students.
What sorts of people come to the Shad Valley program? 
Our candidates tend to be creative and talented individuals--musicians, inventors, and young businesspeople--with strong leadership skills, the ability to work in a team, and solid academic records, particularly in math and science.
Participants spend the month of July at one of ten excellent universities across Canada, where they attend lectures and workshops, and get involved in group projects. Some go on to paid work placements for the rest of the summer with Shad partner companies, combining their own talents with the skills honed at Shad to tackle real-world challenges.
Shad Valley is a program of Shad Valley International (a Canadian registered charity).
