<td width="593" valign="top">My book: <strong> No Canadian Experience, eh?</strong> <strong><em>A   Career Survival Guide for New Immigrants </em></strong>Letters   of acknowledgement were received from: The Right Hon. Governor General Michaëlle Jean, MPP   Linda Jeffrey, and former Minister of Citizenship &amp; Immigration, Hon.   Mike Colle, who cited in a letter that the book <strong>&#8220;is an excellent resource tool&#8221;</strong>.</p>
<p>A publisher of career books in Toronto remarked in an email that he <strong><em>&#8220;was   pleasantly surprised to see so much valuable information for a segment of the   population that was largely ignored in regards to the job search.&#8221;</em></strong></td>

<p><em> &#8220;Certain areas were not originally included   in the curriculum, but based on her assessment of the needs of each group,   she was able to incorporate small business information and interviewing   techniques into the program. In an effort to enhance the Personal &amp;   Professional Communication section of the program, she took several of the   women on field trips to attend meetings of Toastmasters.&#8221; </em>~ <strong>Wanda Marsman, </strong><strong>Assistant Manager, COSTI Immigrant   Services</strong>.<em></em></p>

<p><strong><em>&#8220;No Canadian Experience, Eh?&#8221; </em></strong><em>&#8230; is unique and exceptional because it is the first and only   resource for foreign trained professionals that focuses solely on the issue   of lacking Canadian experience as a main hurdle impeding their employment   integration in their fields of training and experience.&#8221; ~</em><strong>Dr. Yamil Alonso, Program Director BNRC, Brampton</strong></p>
