Program description
You will be well-prepared to assist certified immigration and citizenship advisors, as well as immigration lawyers, in their work within the larger framework of Canadian law by completing Seneca's Immigration Case Management program.
Interpersonal and administrative support skills are taught alongside specific understanding of refugee, citizenship, and immigration legislation in this curriculum. You will gain knowledge of the law as well as the unique software used by your field to organize case files and accomplish project objectives.
Important Note: Participants will receive expert instruction on the Canadian immigration process through this seminar. Graduates will not, however, be eligible to practise law, give legal advice, or be regulated immigration consultants. Also, it won't help you get ready for the RCIC exam, which is required to become a certified immigration consultant in Canada.
