Calgary: A New Chapter
Thank you very much! I was looking forward to this kind of workshop for weeks, and it exceeded my expectations! It's an incredible platform to guide new Canadians step-by-step about their settlement needs in Canada. I was really happy to know after attending this valuable workshop, that the key to having a bright future is to come out of your comfort zone and find the right people and place to grow your skills. This Platform will surely send you on the right path to future success.
It's a full package related to Police, housing, education, jobs, health care and guidance. I would highly recommend this workshop to every newcomer for the right guidance.
Thank you CCIS, the program coordinator especially, and all the presenters for the great effort you are doing to serve others.
Post arrival service provided to newcomers to Canada is very helpful to me. I had to spend some time because the program is comprehensive but it is totally worthwhile to do so. I could not have imagined how useful it was. After participating in the program, I am more confident with my new chapter in Calgary. I feel lucky and secure. Thanks CCIS!
I was privileged to attend the 7 workshops hosted by Calgary: A New Chapter and it was very informative and definitely would recommend every new comer to be a part of this workshop as it sets the right path for one to get employment and other useful resources.
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.
I had the chance to attend the Calgary: A New Chapter workshop which was really amazing and informative. I wish I had attended this before so I could have learned where to start. I highly recommend this for everyone who wants to know about what services are provided by the government and also by the organizations all around Canada.
The Calgary: A New Chapter program taught me to get well prepared and look into new life and job opportunities in Canada.
The Calgary: A New Chapter workshop series played a significant role in helping my family and I settle and integrate successfully into Calgary. The topics covered are very relevant to every day life. I would definitely recommend that new comers to Calgary key into the workshop series early on.
For me, Calgary: A New Chapter was very enriching. I learned about the tax system and how this works in Canada. I must say when I got my first job, I was prepared and knew about what exactly has been deducted from my pay.
I learned about when and how to apply to become a citizen of Canada, which is going to be of great help for me in future.
What I loved the most was Job Search Strategies – I actually applied what I learned in my actual job interview and I got the job!
I highly recommend this program and the coordinator has been of great help at all times.
The Calgary: A New Chapter program by CCIS is one of the best ways to obtain first-hand information about the "Calgary-an" way of life and by extension Canada as a whole. It afforded me the opportunity to learn about Health, Law enforcement, Tax and getting started career-wise. I recommend 100% to new immigrants.
Calgary: A New Chapter program is the best place to start even if you arrived a few years ago! A lot of very helpful and useful information!
