Updated over 2 weeks ago

  1. See our landing page and complete the application form. If you are eligible, you will be invited to join the experience on Riipen on November 17.

  2. Create an account if you haven’t done so already. Visit our sign up page and hit “Sign up” under Learner. Use the same email address you used to apply to the program.

    Riipen users are only permitted to have one account. If you already have an account, please sign in with your existing credentials. Do not create a new account, as this may prevent you from verifying your identity and accessing opportunities.

  3. Once you create an account or have signed in, you can click on your user icon in the top right corner of the screen, click on your username, and hit “edit profile” to make yourself stand out to employers.

  4. You will receive an invitation to join the experience on September 17.

  5. Accept the invite. If you haven’t already done so, you will be prompted to verify your ID and Proof of Enrolment. Learn more here: Learner verification.

  6. Once verified, return to the experience page from your dashboard. Carefully read through and sign the agreements to unlock projects.

  7. Once you are in, you will apply to projects between November 17 - November 26. Projects will start on December 8th.

    1. To apply, click on the Akito assessment link included in each project description. This unique link will ask a few questions to assess your compatibility. You'll be assigned to a project based on your results. Apply to as many projects as you'd like to increase your chances of being assigned to a project.
