Canadian Immigrant Magazine will be in Vancouver next week with its free expo for newcomers — the Career, Education and Settlement Fair.
Held at the Vancouver Public Library on Monday (Nov. 16) from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., the event aims to help newcomers succeed in their chosen home of B.C.
The free event features a tradeshow of exhibitors including employers (several hiring onsite), settlement agencies and educational institutes, immigration consultants, resume clinics, English pronunciation workshops, social media workshops and more.
There will also be many inspirational speakers, including Iman Aghay, who came to Canada in 2009 with limited knowledge of English, and has since founded the Vancouver Business Network —the largest business meet up group in Canada — and Success Road Academy marketing training centre.
“The last two years of our Vancouver fair have been a great success, connecting newcomers with service providers and employers face-to-face,” said Sanjay Agnihotri, co-publisher of Canadian Immigrant Magazine.
“Indeed, one of the most important aspects of the Fair is the opportunity it gives newcomers to make real connections with others. We encourage all immigrants and refugees in Metro Vancouver to come to this free event to network, learn new strategies for success, and leave inspired.”
