National Healthcare Language Program INFORMATION SESSIONS

September 16 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Hello,
 
 
This IRCC-funded program supports international medical graduates (IMGs), international pharmacy graduates (IPGs), and internationally educated nurses (IENs) with improving their communication skills for the healthcare sector. These courses focus on patient interactions and other relevant profession-specific communication tasks. (More info here)
In addition to the marketing materials provided with the email communication, we are also presenting information sessions for clients so they can learn more about the program. I have attached a flyer to share with clients. This is the current schedule:
  • Monday, September 16 – 6:00 pm (Mountain time)
  • Monday, September 16 – 7:00 pm (Eastern time)

We can also customize our information sessions to specific professions or regions. Please reach out to us if you would like a tailored information session. We are happy to plan this with you.
