Humber’s Community Outreach & Workforce Development (COWD) department invites you to attend an information session, hosted by Laurie Rancourt (Senior Vice President, Academic) to learn more about how you can mentor a skilled newcomer to Canada.
The Mentoring Partnership is a Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council (TRIEC) program that brings together skilled new immigrants and established professionals in occupation-specific mentoring relationships.

Benefits to you:
