ABOUT THE COURSE
This course is for settlement professionals and other service providers who work with privately sponsored refugees and their sponsors.
In this course, you will learn the basics of private refugee sponsorship. You will also learn how to work effectively with privately sponsored newcomers, their sponsors, and other settlement professionals.
The course has five modules:
- Introduction to the Private Sponsorship of Refugees Program
- The Role of Sponsors

Each module includes readings, videos, activities, a quiz, a discussion forum, and extra resources to support your learning.
