I participated in the "Calgary: A New Chapter" program and I am very impressed with how professionally, structurally, and clearly everything is organized. The program covers topics from library resources to the law, providing immigrants with comprehensive information necessary to adapt to life in Calgary.

The advice on preparing for employment and education was helpful, and I have successfully started using all the tips. This greatly contributes to a competent and correct start in a new country.

The sessions were interactive, and I had the opportunity to ask questions of the experts. I highly recommend this program to all immigrants who are just starting their lives in Calgary.

Special thanks to Iuliana for her support, positive atmosphere, and valuable advice.”

I recently relocated to Calgary, Canada, not knowing anything or what to do. I reached out to someone and she advise me to contact CCIS which I did.

I had the opportunity to attend one of their workshops, the Calgary: A New Chapter workshop and I must confess I’m happy I did. The session was well packed with all the necessary information a new migrant needs to settle in smoothly and have a beautiful life in Canada. The program gave me insight into transportation, health, finances & mortgage, food bank, tax, driving license, law enforcement, and last but not the least getting started career-wise in Alberta, Calgary.  I strongly recommend this workshop for newcomers.

Furthermore, I want to thank the organisers, the project coordinator, guest speakers and the government for the support they have given newcomers.
