Entrepreneurial Work-Integrated Learning (EWIL) | Seneca Works | Seneca Students

WHAT IS EWIL?

Entrepreneurial Work-Integrated Learning (EWIL) provides supports to bridge the gap between idea, validation, and launch.  Supported by a coach, students will gain both practical and professional skills as they learn how to start and grow a startup during this 13-week structured synchronous and asynchronous EWIL program.   

Students are equipped with knowledge, provided mentorship and given access to microgrant opportunities.   

Skills developed in the EWIL program will be valuable whether the student wants to start their own business or join an existing one.   

Upon successful completion of the 13-week EWIL, students will receive: 

• their academic WIL credit 

• a HELIX micro-badge 

• acceptance into HELIX to continue to develop their new venture  

Launched in September 2024, the EWIL is available to both international and domestic students in selected programs.
