Career Boot Camp 2026
Are you ready to take your career in the federal public service to the next level? Look no further! We are thrilled to announce the 6th virtual edition of Career Boot Camp.
Turn challenges into stepping stones for growth - personally and professionally.
Hosted by the Federal Youth Network (FYN), Career Boot Camp 2026 is your gateway to building resilience and adapting in a time of fiscal constraint across the public service. Through interactive workshops, you’ll explore strategies to navigate career uncertainty, grow your network, and shape your path forward with confidence.
While CBC spans two weeks, the time commitment is designed to be manageable. You’re welcome to attend one, two, or all of the sessions—whatever best fits your interests and schedule. We encourage you to review the workshop offerings and block time in your calendar for the ones that resonate most with your current career journey. Attendance is not mandatory for every session, but we recommend prioritizing those that align closely with your goals and development path.
