This course is intended for settlement service professionals and other settlement service providers who work with privately sponsored refugees and their sponsors. The objectives of this course are to provide you with essential information about private sponsorship in general, and to assist you in navigating the unique relationships between settlement professionals, privately sponsored newcomers, and their sponsors.
This is a hybrid course, combining self-study with live, interactive elements. You can go through the reading materials at your own pace and schedule, but you must attend weekly video chat sessions. All readings, quizzes, and the final exam must be completed within 6 weeks of enrollment. To enhance your learning experience, weekly online discussion forums and video chat sessions are available to interact with other students and the course facilitator.
As you progress through the five modules of the course, you'll learn how crucial your role is in supporting successful refugee sponsorships. Each module includes essential readings, videos, activities, a quiz, an online discussion forum, and a link to the weekly video chat session. Additionally, each module provides a list of extra resources you may find helpful.
The course modules are as follows:
- Overview of the Private Sponsorship of Refugees
- The Role of Sponsors (includes sponsor responsibilities)
- Rights, Responsibilities, and Expectations of Privately Sponsored Newcomers
- IRCC Program Assurance
- The Role of Settlement Workers in Private Sponsorships
