What documents do I need to upload?

Within your Camp Canada profile, a documents section outlines all the documents you need to upload, including any deadlines and supporting information. 

Why won't my documents upload?

All documents need to be uploaded in a PDF or JPEG format under 2MB in file size. Multiple pages need to be uploaded as one file by merging the pages. 

If your file is not a PDF:

  • On most computers, if you select 'File' there should be an option to 'Save As' or 'Export', which will allow you to change the file to a PDF
  • Otherwise, there are sites you can find online to convert to PDF for free, such as this one.

If your file is more than 2MB:

  • There are sites available online that you can use to reduce the size of your PDF, such as this one. This should 'shrink' the size of the overall file, without sacrificing any of the content. 

If you are still having issues, please reach out to communitysuccess@campcanada.ca

What certificates do I need to upload?

Your certificates section can be home to any certificate you feel adds value to your application. It can be something you obtain from your school or from an activity you practice. For example, if you were a Sailor and you completed a sailing course, the certificate from that would complement your skills.

This is an optional document, so if you don’t have any certificates, or you don’t feel your certificates are relevant, that’s okay too!

Where do I get my camp contract from?

Once you have been placed, your summer camp will either email your contract to you or upload it to your Camp Canada account. Please sign and date your contract before uploading.
