I was a student of SOPA-Settlement Online Pre-Arrival. It was a great program offered across Canada and I was so happy that it is also province specific. I've landed in Winnipeg last year and SOPA helps me a to have a realistic settlement and on my employment. I've met with an Intake Counsellor and she was very friendly, she connected me with my regulatory body too and other people who are in my profession. She gave a lot of information about my questions. I also enrolled to their online free courses and my facilitators are extremely helpful. I've learned how to do my Canadian resume through the Job Search Strategies course. 3 weeks before my and my family arrive, I've applied in a company and I'm surprised that I was shortlisted for an interview over Skype and my 2nd interview was done here in Winnipeg. My preparation was all because of the SOPA program. So go ahead buddy and enrol to SOPA at

By the way me and my wife are students of SOPA, she also got a job after a month.
