Program Manager, Social Innovation Consulting Group

SIA is enlisting the support of a Mitacs intern to develop a Social Innovation Consulting Group (SICG) – a new initiative within the SIA umbrella. SIA is looking to expand its programs to include longer-term consulting engagements in partnership with a post-secondary institution in Canada. While the Social Innovation Fellowship currently offers 8-week projects, there is a new opportunity to incorporate a student-led consulting group that will benefit from pre-existing SIA training and expand the avenues of support available to social enterprises and non-profits. The Mitacs intern will lead the development of this program and create new procedures specific to the SICG. This new program will provide consulting services to social enterprises and non-profit organizations, over a duration of 16 weeks with the option for academic credit within the post-secondary institution.
