Welcome to Level UP, powered by Riipen! This unique initiative enables employers to engage Canadian post-secondary students for 80-hour paid projects. Students receive a $1,400 CAD stipend from Riipen upon successful project completion. Employers are not required to provide payment.


Here’s how it works:

  • Submit a project to this experience for our Level UP team to review. 
  • Once your project gets the green light, students (individually or in teams) will apply directly. They might come from various Canadian post-secondary institutions and academic programs. 
  • Craft a project description that’s skill-specific to attract the best-fit applicants.


STUDENTS MUST BE INVITED TO JOIN LEVEL UP. Students can request access to this program here.


Important points

  • Project deliverables will differ based on scope, but a comprehensive report or other assets should be produced by project completion, aiding your business goals. 
  • Regular communication with students enhances project outcomes. 
  • If confidentiality is key, consider having students sign an NDA using our agreements feature. They can still submit work on the platform by uploading redacted samples, using the worklog feature, and writing a brief project reflection. 


Our help articles in the Level UP knowledge centre can help you get started.

Project Examples

Requirements

Let's talk about project specifics! Projects must be 80 hours of work. Here's a briefing on how to make your project stand out:


  • It's all about short, remote projects that are project-based, not job postings. Explicit, focused scopes are the name of the game. One project per student is optimal.
  • If you opt for a template from our library, add details of your business context for a personalized touch. Any template-based projects need to incorporate customization to get the thumbs up from us. While students will collaborate with you, your project description should stand alone in conveying the project's scope. Precise details ensure that students and projects match up beautifully.


Remember - project acceptance doesn't guarantee student applications. Let's keep the enthusiasm high!
