If you require support to pay for the credentials, licensing, retraining or professional development you need to achieve career success in Canada, we invite you to attend the information session held by ASCM BC and presented by Windmill Microlending.

If you reside in BC or Alberta this session will provide you with an update to Windmill's Microlending Program and the services offered.  Windmill is a government funded organization which actively supports students with loan services to complete their academic studies in Canada.

Join us on Wednesday, June 29, at 2 p.m. PST. We’ll introduce you to an affordable loan program and discuss how Windmill can help you.

At this session, you will learn about how Windmill Microlending offers affordable, flexible and low-interest loans of up to $15,000, exclusively to Canadian skilled immigrants and refugees. We can help you pay for the credential assessments, licensing, qualifying exams, education and training you need to restart, continue and grow your career in your new country – even relocation and child care costs, while you study. Often, our clients have no credit history in Canada.

Learn about how Windmill has helped more than 6,500 new Canadians achieve career success since 2005 through our microloans as well as our dedicated client success coaching, mentorship program, financial planning tools and online digital resources.
