CALGARY: A NEW CHAPTER

What Our Clients Say About Us

CCIS Calgary: A New Chapter program have been very helpful. It assisted me in learning and unlearning some practice back in my home country. It gave me the opportunity to interact directly with people in the line of field work, who provided useful tips and information to better help me integrate and settle in the country.

When arriving a new Country or community, one is faced with a lot of questions and emotions and if we do not turn in the right direction we may get wrong information or counsels from various sources. This is why it is a great comfort and source of reassurance to have organizations like CCIS guide and support you while trying to settle down.

Calgary: A New Chapter was a very informative and welcoming experience for us because we got invaluable information about education, health services, security services, employment guide and much more. We highly recommend this program for new comers to this beautiful city.

Thanks to the organizers of Calgary: A New Chapter Program.  I arrived in Calgary without a direction. I was confused with everything happening as it differs from my home country. I was recommended by a friend to follow up with CCIS.

My encounter with CCIS changed my perspective through the Calgary: A New Chapter online session. Information is the core of a successful life in Canada. This webinar gave an in-depth insight into healthcare, taxes, education, mental health, workplace culture, getting a job, etc. At the end of this webinar, something in me was altered and a platform for success was birthed. I became optimistic, focused, result-oriented, and a goal-getter.

Although challenges will come, with the information I have been exposed to by the organizers of this webinar, I feel more than ready to go through it and come out a success.

I am recommending every new immigrant get in touch with CCIS and be part of this webinar titled Calgary: A New Chapter Program.

"Calgary: A New Chapter" workshop is a must-attend for all newcomers to Calgary. I had been here for 2 months and after attending the sessions, for the first time felt like I'd finally started getting to know this city. The sessions were very informative and made me comfortable with the Canadian system. Before this, I felt like I was shooting darts in the dark. Everything needed to be googled, and even that seemed a struggle.

I am very grateful to the coordinator for her brilliant facilitation skills to ensure that we had the best industry experts talk on their field of relevance and impart tremendously helpful knowledge.  I wish I had taken this course the day I landed in Calgary! "

Thanks to the pandemic, I had almost two years to prepare myself before landing in Canada. I thought I had done thorough research and practically knew everything I needed to help me settle down and start a new life in Calgary. But, to be honest, the program Calgary: A New Chapter was an eye-opener and helped me understand in detail various topics which I knew on the surface level prior to my landing.

I am very grateful to be a part of this program and it helped me provide a platform to express myself without any fear of judgement and understand that I am not the only one going through all these emotions of excitement, happiness, anxiety, sadness etc.

I would highly encourage all the newcomers to be a part of this program and help themselves in settling down and gaining friendships that can last for years to come.

Calgary: A New Chapter program is the right place and the right source to get information and advice as a newcomer to Canada. I relocated to Calgary six weeks ago. At the beginning, I tried to get information about life in Calgary from friends, and acquaintances but I received partial or innacurate information. Now, after I attended the Calgary: A New Chapter program, all the information is clear. Calgary: A New Chapter program is the best place for everybody, but especially for newcomers.

Thank you very much CCIS, for giving me the opportunity to join this special program, Calgary: A New Chapter!
