Federal Youth Network/Home

The Federal Youth Network (FYN) is the national network for young and new public servants across the Public Service of Canada. It began in 2002 and seeks to foster and promote engagement, innovation and career development through in-person and virtual programming such as Career Boot Camp and the FYN Virtual Learning Series.

Each region has its own Regional Youth Network. The links to the regional networks can all be found on the FYN GCcollab group page.
