Published: November 1, 1997

Indications at present are that the Pilot Project for Software Professionals has been extended until March of 1998.

This project, aimed at countering a perceived shortage of skilled computer professionals in Canada, removes the requirements of validation of job offers in order to obtain employment authorizations for certain computer software related professions.
