Grades: 9, 10, 11, 12

The YCDSB Continuing Education Department is excited to launch the Travel for Credit Summer Program – a unique opportunity for students to earn a secondary school credit while experiencing new cultures, languages, and traditions abroad.

This program blends academic learning with a life-changing international trip, giving students the chance to build credit, broaden their horizons, and make memories that last a lifetime.

Program Structure

The Travel for Credit program is designed as a combination of classroom learning and experiential education:

  • 7 Pre-Trip Saturday Classes (Remote): Build language and cultural foundations, prepare for travel, and connect with classmates.
