On December 13th, 2020, Riipen celebrated its seven-year anniversary! 2020 has brought with it many challenges, but also many opportunities. Though there is still a long way to go to achieve our mission of ending graduate underemployment globally, we have made strides towards that goal. As the year draws to a close, we would like to take the time to reflect on some of the key highlights from our year:
Starting as a pilot in the Spring of 2020 and then adapted fully for the 2020/2021 academic year, Lethbridge College in Southern Alberta joins the 150+ campuses across North America using Riipen. Lethbridge College is one of 16 Canadian post-secondary institutions using Riipen funded through the second phase of the RBC Future Launch partnership.
Thompson Rivers University is thrilled to announce our continuing partnership with Riipen, the world’s largest marketplace of work-integrated learning experiences for students. For the second year in a row, Thompson Rivers University was selected as one of the recipients of funding provided by the RBC Future Launch Foundation.
