This is where you put your ideas in motion in the hope of making Canada a better place. During this stage, participants will also begin to collaborate with peers across the country to develop outreach and service projects they can deliver during stage three of the program. Corps members will have a chance to complete meaningful service learning to deepen the lessons learned in the first stage of the program. In this stage CCC participants will take part in exciting hands-on conservation and environmental field work, working alongside experts to complete work in three vital conservation categories: Habitat Creation and Restoration, Wildlife Management and/or Environmental Science.
