Foreign Credentials: Credential Recognition

Referral Office Dept: Four years after the Canadian Immigration Integration Program CIIP was launched, 62 per cent of participants found employment in six month, up from 44 per cent before its existence, says a government review of the federal Foreign Credentials Referral Office, according to The Star. According to the report, 13,000 skilled immigrants had registered by September 2010 for the pre-arrival orientation program about Canadian culture, labour market and foreign credential recognition process and a government initiative to help skilled immigrants navigate the labyrinth of credential recognition and Canadian job market before they arrive on our shores has boosted newcomers employment rate. Ottawa launched the office in 2007 as a response to all those surgeon-driving-a-taxi tales that have sullied Canada s reputation as a good place to resettle. As reported in the news.
