Export Internship for Trade Graduates ProgramThe EITG Program, currently in it's fourth phase, is an ACOA-subsidized initiative designed to provide new and existing exporters with quality trade advisory services, while offering work opportunities for recent university and college graduates. The program offers 12-month internships and subsidizes interns’ at 75 per cent, up to a maximum of $25,000 for one year.

Women Exporters Initiative

CME coordinated with ACOA in 2006–07 to bring 20 women entrepreneurs from across Atlantic Canada to the point of export readiness by providing training, mentoring, business diagnostics, and guidance, which lead to their participation in a trade mission to Boston. Mission aftercare was also an important element of the program.
This year, the program will recruit women entrepreneurs in the food industry from throughout Atlantic Canada and will provide the necessary mentoring and training to help prepare them for export readiness.  Participants will travel to Philadelphia and New York City to receive more training, meet with potential buyers and attend a large food industry trade show.
