Watch the video below for testimonials from happy employers.
Skilled immigrants possess talents or accreditation in a variety of fields. Employers can benefit from understanding international credentials and conducting workforce planning that emphasizes the quality of an immigrant’s abilities.
Many skilled immigrants speak other languages and have worked outside of North America. Their knowledge of international business practices can help you tap into new local markets and build relationships around the world, as well as serve Calgary and Southern Alberta’s growing multicultural markets.
Many skilled newcomers arrive with high levels of education and extensive work experience. They have recognized an opportunity for a new life in Canada and bring to the Canadian workplace openness, adaptability, and positive attitudes toward learning new skills and contributing their expertise to the local labour market.
Attracting and retaining top talent has more positive long-term impact on relieving labour shortages than short-term expensive tactics, such as escalating compensation and benefit packages.
Integrating skilled newcomers to the team helps employers and Canadian-born employees enhance their understanding of the challenges newcomers face, as well as benefit from the diverse experiences and the wealth of skills they bring with them.
Awards, such as the Canada’s Best Diversity Employers and many local honours, recognize the good work that employers do to capitalize on skilled immigrant talent and to help newcomers launch their careers here in Canada.
Discover a tailored suite of employment programs at CCIS designed to elevate your workforce and streamline your recruitment process.

The Canada-Alberta Job Grant is a great way for employers to achieve what it takes to find well trained employees who are ready to provide their company with expertise and commitment. Alberta is investing in the economy: to train the right people, to increase retention rates and increase productivity. As an employer, YOU decide the type of training, whether it’s to train new or existing employees for future organizational growth.
