$4 million in funding from federal government for 'fair, timely process'
Internationally trained professionals should be able to put their knowledge and skills to work sooner with the launch of a new project in British Columbia. The federal government is providing more than $4 million in funding to the British Columbia Ministry of Regional Economic and Skills Development to help the province establish “a fair and timely process” to recognize foreign credentials so skilled newcomers can find jobs in their fields. Internationally trained professionals will also benefit from bridge-to-work and mentorship programs in various occupations.
