Try SWAP
program
BY JOANNE
BUCHANAN
Towards the end of this
month, many university
students will be returning
home to Goderich to look
for summer jobs. Some
will find jobs here but
others • may not be so
fortunate. There is only
so much work to go
around.
To those students who
can't find jobs here, why
not try the SWAP
program. SWAP stands
for Student Work Abroad
Program. It is a practical
program enabling
students to temporarily
work and reside 'in •a
country of their choice.
SWAP is being offe d in
five countries at pres
Great Britain, Ireland,
New Zealand, Belgium
and the Netherlands. '
SWAP is ideal for those
students. who have
always dreamed of
seeing the world but can't
quite afford the ex-
perience.
"The purpose of SWAP
is to offset the rising cost
of travel," explains
Bruce Homer, Marketing
Director of the
Association of Student
Councils which ad -

Most work offered
through SWAP is related
to the service industry.
Jobs in hotels,
restaurants„ banks, of-
fices, factories and farms
are the most common.
The salaries aren't•bad
either. In Great Britain,
starting wages range
from $120-$140 a weekend
meals are often included.
Belgium, which offers
employment varying
from auto mechanics to
railway ' work, has
,starting salaries up to
$320 a week. A student
working on a farm in the
Netherlands has his.or
her income supplemented
by free food and lodging.
Jobs in the SWAP
program are usually of •
short duration. In most
cases, they last just a few
month's. This is con-
sidered sufficient . time
for the student -worker to
absorb much of the host
country's language,
culture and lifestyle.
It's simple to get in-
volved in the SWAP
program' but there are a
few eligibility
requirements. First,
participants must
possess a Canadian
passport and a valid 1980
Interns -bona' Student
Identity Card. The latter
is available through the
Association of Student
Council. office. In ad-
dition, applicants ' must
register at least 35 days
in advance of departure
and have $500 with which.
to support themselves
until their' first
paycheque. The student
must also pay his or her
own travel expenses.
