New Immigration Program Created By Alberta Should Help Bring In Tech Workers To Canada

Another immigration program has been created in Canada and this one has been designed to help bring in the needed immigrant tech workers to Alberta. With Canada being one of the countries in the world that is on top when it comes to tech businesses, it is no surprise that more and more businesses are in need of tech workers. And should there be a need for more and the labor market in the country is not able to provide all of them, immigration programs like this new one should help with bringing them in.

 

This is definitely good news for a lot of potential immigrants around the world who are looking for a route that would take them to Canada. Tech workers around the world who may be searching for better opportunities have been eyeing Canada as a great country to move to as immigrants as the country is now known as the newest Silicon Valley with many tech companies setting up shop there.

 

The route for tech workers

 

The new route for immigrant tech workers is known as the Accelerated Tech Pathway and it was announced just last January 13 by Tyler Shandro, the immigration minister of Alberta. This province in Canada has already started accepting any applications for this since December last year. Tech professionals who have been planning on moving to Canada have been more than happy to learn about this and work on their applications to make it to the country.

 

Shandro also shared that with the new route for tech immigrants, immigrant tech professionals who have made it to the country actually can become permanent residents in Canada in a shorter time. In fact, they can become permanent residents in just six months as long as they have a job offer for an occupation that is in demand in the tech industry in the country. This has gotten a lot of interested individuals around the world to be really quite excited about the possibilities.

 

Tech companies in Alberta

 

Canada is home to thousands and thousands of tech companies. And it is interesting to note that in Alberta, there are over 3,000 of these companies. The tech sector in this province in Canada has grown by 233% since 2012. Perhaps because of the huge number of tech companies in the country, there is a higher demand for more tech workers, and there is definitely not enough talent in the country to fulfill all of those needs. That is why having an immigration program that would bring in the needed tech workers is now what Alberta has done to help out the tech companies. Some of the in-demand workers in the province right now are workers who are experts in technical knowledge and skills, as well as those who would be doing sales.
