Immigrant Employees Community Network

Who we are
The Immigrant Employees Community Network includes ³ÉÈË´óÆ¬ faculty and staff who self-identify as immigrants. Members bring a range of diverse perspectives and experiences of living and working as immigrants in Canada.
What we do
Our goal is to create a network for ³ÉÈË´óÆ¬ employees who self-identify as an immigrant to gather and share relevant information, and support each other.
The group meets on a regular basis on a range of topics determined by member interest, including but not limited to:
- providing peer support and mentoring;
- identifying and sharing useful resources and tools;
- collaborating with and accessing other community network groups and experts on issues of common interest and concern.
This is an employee-driven group made of faculty and staff members who function as a steering body with various working groups which develop the mandate, goals, and events of the network.
