With students learning online during the COVID-19 pandemic, RBC aims to help youth connect and learn through their new virtual resource hub.

The RBC Future Launch at Home website is a new offshoot of the RBC Future Launch project, a $500 million project intended to help Canadian youth prepare for the jobs of tomorrow over the next 10 years.

The hub offers more than 30 virtual programs such as coding lessons, networking opportunities, skills challenges, workshops, online learning modules and virtual support services.

“So much of the programming we support through RBC Future Launch is built on bringing people together—to share stories, ideas and to learn from one another,” said Mark Beckles, RBC’s senior director, youth strategy & innovation. “In our current reality, doing this in a physical setting quickly became impossible, but our partners have eagerly adapted to this new normal with virtual programming and resources. We’re all inspired to keep supporting young people through these challenging times and beyond.”

New resources will be added on a bi-weekly basis. To learn more, visit the RBC Future Launch at Home website.
