  2. INTRODUCTION  Immigration Research West, University of Manitoba  An Inventory of Pre- Arrival Services in Canada’s West Project:  Objectives: • To identify the agencies and organizations that provide pre-arrival services in the western Canadian provinces • To specify the pre-arrival services available in western Canada • To understand the practices of pre-arrival service deliveries in the western provinces

  3. OUTLINE • Pre-arrival immigrant services in the Canadian context • Various forms of pre-arrival services provided in the western provinces • Arrangements for delivering pre-arrival services • Agencies providing pre-arrival services in western provinces • Partnership and collaboration for pre-arrival services delivery across the western provinces

  4. PRE-ARRIVAL IMMIGRANT SERVICES IN THE CANADIAN CONTEXT Contextualizing pre-arrival services for Canadian immigrants • Canada – a country of immigrants • Canada welcomes hundreds of thousands of immigrants every year • Immigration is vital for Canada’s population growth and economic prosperity • Settlement and integration experiences of immigrants are not uniform • Pre-arrival services are emphasized in recent years as a means to seamless economic and social integration of immigrants to Canada

  5. PRE-ARRIVAL IMMIGRANT SERVICES IN THE CANADIAN CONTEXT (CONT.) What do pre-arrival immigrant services mean? • Services that are provided to immigrants before departure for Canada • Immigrants are informed and educated about Canadian life and society and the skills they need to integrate into the Canadian labour force when they are still in their country of origins • Immigrants are offered opportunities to arrive more prepared

  6. PRE-ARRIVAL IMMIGRANT SERVICES IN THE CANADIAN CONTEXT (CONT.) Targets of pre-arrival services • Generally, immigrants who are at the final stages of immigration process, in the pre-arrival period (Chartwell Inc. & CREHS, 2007) • Who have been selected to become Permanent Residents to Canada by IRCC • Individual services may target specific immigrants (based on language skills, occupational background and interest, or intended location of settlement)

  7. PRE-ARRIVAL IMMIGRANT SERVICES IN THE CANADIAN CONTEXT (CONT.) Needs that pre-arrival services intervene • Immigrants need to understand the necessities for settlement in Canada or in the intended location of settlement in Canada • Need to close the preparedness gap by starting key settlement tasks before arriving in Canada. Perceived usefulness of pre-arrival services • The more prepared immigrants are during their pre-departure stage, they have better chances of success in integrating upon arrival. “ Pre-arrival services are expected to facilitate faster and more efficient economic and social integration of newcomers to Canada by effectively addressing needs earlier in the integration continuum and improving linkages between pre-arrival and domestic (in- Canada) services. ” – IRCC, 2014 “ To have the best knowledge on what to expect when they arrive to Canada, has a strong link with the future success of the new immigrants after their arrival. If they have the proper information and realistic expectations they will know what is for them in Canada .” - Participant 1

  8. FORMS OF PRE-ARRIVAL SERVICES PROVIDED IN THE WESTERN PROVINCES 1) Information and orientation  Life and work in Canada, licensing requirement for trades and professions, tailored information based on destination and occupation, right and responsibilities 2) Advice and Guidance  Tailored/individualized settlement/action planning, counselling 3) Employment Services and Support  Training job search strategies, resume building and job interview training, training professional communication and workplace culture, resume reviewing, competence assessment, skill gap training, credential assessment, connecting with employers, mentoring job seekers, information about job opportunities 4) Settlement Services and Support  Providing information about services and resources in destined location: housing, education, healthcare, transportation, banking etc. 5) Referrals  Need assessment and referral to local settlement services and community services 6) Community Connections  Discussion forums, connecting with local community groups
