(Le français suit l’anglais) National Student Paper Competition Hello, As the end of the fall semester approaches, we want to remind you that submissions for the National Student Paper Competition are now open. The deadline is January 31, 2023. The NSPC is an annual competition hosted by the Canada School of Public Service (the School) that aims to identify and amplify important policy work coming out of Canadian graduate programs. The initiative gives graduate students the opportunity to connect with senior executives, expand their networks, nurture their leadership skills, and foster employment opportunities with the federal public service. University professors and supervisors can encourage and support their students through the process of submitting an academic paper they have been working on or inspire them to write something innovative that can inform Canadian policies and programs or the federal public service. The grand prize winner or winners of the competition are offered a 4-month internship with the Government of Canada and many opportunities to expand their networks. By participating, students have the unique opportunity to influence important policy conversations, and many participants go on to be employed with the federal government. We look forward to receiving papers from your community of graduate students. We ask you kindly to share NSPC application information with all graduate programs, professors, co-op staff, experiential learning coordinators, and students in your organization. We also encourage you to follow the School on Twitter and share relevant NSPC content. National Student Paper Competition web page Video: National Student Paper Competition Please contact the NSPC team if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you, Stay connected For more learning opportunities, please visit Canada.ca/school.

Les professeur·es d’université et les superviseur·es peuvent encourager et soutenir leurs étudiant·es dans le processus de soumission d’un essai universitaire sur lequel ils et elles ont travaillé ou les inspirer à écrire un travail comportant des solutions novatrices qui pourrait informer les politiques et les programmes canadiens ou la fonction publique fédérale. Le, la ou les lauréat·es du grand prix du concours se voient offrir un stage de quatre mois au sein du gouvernement du Canada et de nombreuses occasions d’élargir leurs réseaux professionnels.
