About
Taking a gap year is one of the very best things a young person can do for themselves and their future prospects – if they do it right.
Which is where we come in. The Canadian Gap Year Association (CanGap) is a registered non-profit organization with a mission to support young people looking to take an intentional step off the conveyor belt of life to explore and experience ‘the real world’ according to their talents, goals and interests.
What began in the early 2000s with two parents who saw a need for support while their own children were exploring gap years, has grown and evolved into a dynamic and trusted resource for providing gap year information.
Under the leadership of our Director and gap year expert Michelle Dittmer, we support gappers and their families through one-on-one coaching , a year-long certification program and a wealth of free resources – all designed to help you plan and execute on an epic year, whatever that looks like for you.
