Program Summary:  On June 20, 2014, the Canadian government announced its overhaul of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program that emphasizes a "Canadian First" policy.

Participants will learn

  • Review key changes from the Temporary Foreign Worker Program Overhaul
  • Overview of the new Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) that replaces the previous Labour Market Opinion (LMO)
  • Overview of International Mobility Programs (IMP)
