I am a temporary worker
Welcome to Quebec! Since you’ll be here for a little while, let’s make sure you can make the most of this opportunity. Our advisors are here to support you and ensure your experience is as fulfilling as possible. And if you decide to stay longer, we can also help you through that process.
Here are a few services that may be useful to you.
Accueil et intégration
Ne restez pas sans réponse face à vos questions concernant l’immigration. Notre équipe bienveillante peut évaluer vos besoins, simplifier votre intégration, vous orienter vers des services essentiels et vous accompagner dans l’obtention de vos documents d’immigration.
French courses
Whether you’re on a 3-month or 1-year work permit, learning French during your stay will make it much easier to communicate. For both working and socializing, learning French is the best way to settle in. These free courses are hosted at PROMIS’ warm, welcoming, accessible offices. They are offered by the Ministère de l’Immigration, de la Francisation et de l’Intégration (MIFI).
Family support
Recently arrived in Quebec for work but don’t have a local network? Feeling isolated? PROMIS organizes activities and workshops to better understand cultural and family life here in Quebec. You’ll also have the chance to meet immigrants who are living the same experiences as you are. If you came here alone, we can guide you through the process of bringing your family to Quebec.
Soutien scolaire
Le système scolaire québécois offre de belles opportunités à vos enfants. Pour qu’ils en profitent pleinement, nous créons un fort réseau autour des élèves afin de les aider à réussir. Nous vous offrons également un accompagnement constant, dans votre langue maternelle, en étroite collaboration avec le personnel scolaire.
Food action
New country, new culinary experiences. We offer a number of courses and workshops to help you get oriented at the grocery store, make healthy choices, and cook with local ingredients. Your new favourite recipes await!
Live outside a major metropolitan area
Quebec is a huge province with plenty to offer. Why not use your job search as an opportunity to explore outside its largest cities? There are lots of opportunities to discover. Our integration partners across the province regularly organize visits to different areas of Quebec.
Entrepreneuriat immigrant
Au Québec, nous aimons les entrepreneur·e·s. Que diriez-vous de vous former au système entrepreneurial québécois, de participer à des ateliers, de réseauter et de profiter d’un accompagnement pour votre projet d’affaires? Nous avons plein de ressources en démarrage d’entreprise pour les personnes immigrantes.
Maria-Goretti Residence for single women
Are you a woman who moved here on her own and is looking for safe, affordable housing in Montreal? One of our 217 rooms can be yours for 3 months to 1 year, located in a multicultural neighbourhood just a stone’s throw from all the amenities you might need.
Lend a hand
