Students & Young Professionals

Learn how students and young professionals can connect with local businesses, build relationships, and get involved in the CBRM business community.

Start Building Your Network Early

The Cape Breton Regional Chamber of Commerce works with local businesses, organizations, entrepreneurs, and community leaders across the CBRM. For students and young professionals, the Chamber can be a way to learn more about local career paths, meet people in the business community, attend events, and start building connections early.

With the addition of student membership and a Student Director on the Chamber’s Board of Directors, we are working to create more opportunities for young people to get involved, ask questions, and see themselves as part of the future of the local business community.

Learn About Local Careers

Connect with local businesses, employers, entrepreneurs, and professionals while learning more about career paths and opportunities in the CBRM.

Attend Events & Meet People

Chamber events are a great way to build confidence, meet new people, and become more familiar with the local business community.

Get Involved Early

Student membership, future roundtables, mentorship opportunities, and school partnerships can help young people become more connected to the Chamber and the region.

Future Opportunities for Young Professionals

The Chamber is exploring ways to better engage students and young professionals through student-focused events, school partnerships, young professional roundtables, mentorship opportunities, and more accessible ways to participate in Chamber events.

As this work grows, we want to hear from students and young professionals about what would help them feel more connected to the local business community.
