What is GSO?

To succeed in a rapidly changing and increasingly international labour market, Canadians need to be globally fluent and connected, particularly in emerging economies. Global Skills Opportunity (GSO) is here to help students—especially those that face barriers to participation—gain confidence and develop valuable intercultural skills by studying abroad. Global Skills Opportunity is funded by Employment and Social Development Canada.
