MHHS Pathways to Canada Events
The visit of Brian Diener, Asst.  Director, NHQ Research and Evaluation, IRCC and Francis Lacasse, to the office in Manila was quite successful. They were
witness to a TV guest interview as one of our marketing tools on their first day of visit. This was followed by interview sessions with our staff at the Ortigas office.
The following Thursday, they observed group orientation session and one on one need analysis and counselling sessions, as well as a workshop session lead by
our Mike Cayetano on employment, banking and finance topics. The overall feedback were very positive from both officers. (Article and pictures sent by Marius J

one!
