About the Program

Whether you currently work with newcomers or want to become more involved in supporting refugee rights, this training will help you build cultural competency skills and put them into practice. Through this training, you will gain the skills and have access to resources you need to help educate others in your workplace or community.

Delivered through an experiential learning process and in a participatory format, this program is designed for volunteers, service providers, private refugee sponsorship groups, government employees, business groups, or anyone interested in building their skills and knowledge to support more inclusive, diverse, and welcoming communities for the newcomers in our workplaces and communities.

This workshop is delivered over a 12-hour session and spread across four weeks. The workshop can also be tailored to specific groups as a two-day professional development opportunity. The facilitator will work with your team to generate directly applicable competencies to make your workplace more welcoming and inclusive.

Graduates of the Building Intercultural Competence workshops can consider the Welcome Ambassador Training the next step in their learning journey.

To be an Ambassador, you must commit to:

  • attend all four training sessions of three hours each
  • undertake at least one activity that promotes welcoming and inclusion following the training
  • adhere to the principles of equity, diversity, and inclusion
