Relocating to a new country is both an exciting and challenging experience. At the heart of this journey is finding the right resources and support to make the transition as seamless as possible.

Why Choose AEIP?

AEIP’s services are crafted to address the most common challenges that newcomers face. AEIP’s goal is straightforward: to ensure that clients are well-prepared and connected to essential resources even before they set foot in Canada. This preparation is not only practical but also deeply reassuring, enabling newcomers to feel ready for the opportunities and challenges ahead.

One of AEIP’s key strengths is its range of services, designed to cater to individual needs and provide targeted support. Here’s what newcomers can expect:

Pre-departure Orientation: AEIP offers an overview of life in Canada, covering key areas such as healthcare, housing, transportation, and education in live sessions open to AEIP registrants. Through these sessions, clients get a realistic picture of what to expect in their new community.
Themed Workshops: These workshops dive into provincial-specific information, helping newcomers understand the unique aspects of each region, from job markets and cost of living to social services. Whether clients are heading to Toronto, Saskatoon, or Halifax, they’ll have a clear sense of what awaits them.
Individual and Family Consultations: Every client is paired with a dedicated Settlement Practitioner who provides one-on-one support. Whether you’re an individual or part of a family, AEIP’s team addresses your specific settlement and employment needs, from finding schools for children to preparing for the Canadian job market.
