Province of Quebec Funds Employment Resource

The province of Quebec has announced CAD$6 million in funding for programs intended to assist new Canadians to successfully settle in Canada. The money will go to local community groups that provide services and guidance to immigrants to aid them in getting their credentials and training recognized or upgraded so they can find work related to those skills.

The province has announced that the first CAD$900,000 of the available funds will be contributed to a group of nine community grounds in the municipalities of Villeray, St. Michel, Ahuntsic-Cartierville and the east of Montreal Island. Some of the services that these groups provide include improving language skills, assisting in the preparation of resumés, preparation for employment interviews, and more.
