Bring everything related to your skills – degrees, certificates, licenses, etc. Most larger cities have organizations that help newcomers get settled. If you know anyone in Canada they might help you get in touch with one of these organizations. If you don’t know anyone, try Immigrant services.

  1. Francesca Thomas says:

    when you arrive in Canada (assuming you will be in Toronto) take (or send) all your degrees, certificates, diplomas etc to WES and get them assessed for Canadian equivalency.

    Then buy the newspapers everyday and check the employments ads.
