ATLANTIC IMMIGRATION PILOT
Information Session for Employers 

The Atlantic Immigration Pilot (AIP) is a new employer-driven program that helps organizations operating in Atlantic Canada find the talent they need to thrive. Under the program, employers are able to recruit international graduates and foreign skilled workers who are not yet Canadian citizens or permanent residents. To qualify, employers must commit to creating a welcoming workplace and supporting the long-term settlement needs of their newcomer employees.

Are you ready to make the most of AIP? Join the Association for New Canadians for a discussion on the benefits of hiring a diverse workforce, the steps involved in becoming an AIP-designated employer, and the settlement supports that are available – free of charge – to employers who have hired or are thinking about hiring newcomers under the program. Light refreshments will be served and there is no cost to attend.

To learn more about AIP, please visit the Government of Canada's microsite here.
