Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council (TRIEC)

The Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council (TRIEC) is a multi-stakeholder council that brings leadership together to create and champion solutions to better integrate skilled immigrants in the Toronto Region labour market. They address the persistent problem of immigrant underemployment – the fact that extremely highly skilled people come to Toronto from all over the world and end up in low-skilled jobs. They help employers and immigrants find solutions. They connect companies to programs that can help them better recruit and retain immigrants, they develop and distribute learning tools and curriculum, and they help immigrants build their professional connections through mentoring and professional immigrant networks.
