BCCA – Integrating Newcomers is the only Canada-wide, construction-focused service that offers one-on-one career coaching for immigrating Canadian Permanent Residents. We serve clients heading to any city, province, or territory.

Whether you’ve recently landed in Canada, or are still in your home country and approved to come as a permanent resident, we will support you to prepare for job hunting and career success. We serve a variety of professionals including tradespeople, engineers (mostly civil and mechanical, depending on your experience), architects, technicians, technologists, and business support specialists (project managers, estimators for example). If you have established experience in construction from your home country, we can help.

Are you eligible?

To access our free employment, job hunting, licensing, and settlement referral services, you must:

  • Be approved as a permanent resident, whether you are still outside of Canada or recently arrived.
  • Be able to provide one of the following documents:
    • IRCC invitation letter to obtain pre-arrival services
    • Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) letter
    • A passport request letter that indicates Permanent Residence visa issuance
    • IRCC request that an applicant for Permanent Residence complete medicals, etc
    • PR Card

Register Now:

Once you submit your application, we will contact you to confirm eligibility and gather final documents. Then we will assign you a career coach to support you one-on-one in preparing for your new life in Canada. Advice, referrals, and coaching will be delivered online at your pace no matter where you are currently located.

This registration form takes approximately 5 minutes to complete. At the end, you’ll need to upload your resume and proof of your immigration application status. If you don’t have these documents available today, you can skip this step — we’ll follow up via email to request them later.
