International Experience Canada (IEC)
IEC is a youth-mobility program giving citizens of reciprocal-agreement countries an open work permit (Working Holiday) or employer-specific permits (Young Professionals, Co-op) for a limited time.
Eligibility (age range, permit duration, countries covered) is set by bilateral agreements and differs by country — check IRCC's IEC page for the applicant's specific nationality before relying on any general age range.
Some details in this definition are flagged internally for a follow-up fact-check against the primary IRCC/provincial source; the text above is written conservatively pending that review.
