Immigration Minister Chris Alexander has awarded the Canadian Immigrant Integration Program (CIIP) $1.9 million to continue and expand its services for newcomers.

“Programs like the CIIP help immigrants on the path to a successful life in Canada by providing key information on foreign credential recognition, the Canadian labour market and settlement issues,” said Alexander.

The program, which launched in 2007, provides free orientation for federal skilled workers approved for immigration, provincial nominees as well as their spouses and adult dependents.

The new funds will allow CIIP to expand its services in regional offices located in China, India, Philippines and the United Kingdom/Gulf.
