We spoke with the people from the communities and the people who welcomed immigrants in the field. For immigrants, employability is a crucial factor concerning the place where they choose to settle. Credential recognition is therefore very important. The FCFA emphasized the major deficiency in this area. It emphasized the lack of interdepartmental and intergovernmental cooperation. It said that Human Resources and Skills Development Canada and the economic departments of the provinces and territories clearly had a role to play in this regard, as did Citizenship and Immigration Canada, with regard to coordination.
What efforts are currently being made regarding the recognition of immigrants' credentials? What is the process?
