Join us on Tuesday, November 17, 2026, in Neepawa. Learn about free online English and communication training for healthcare workers. 

Are you new to Canada and interested in working in healthcare in Manitoba? Do you already work in healthcare and want to improve your English and communication skills? 

RRC Polytech’s Centre for Newcomer Integration invites you to an information session in Neepawa. At the session, you can learn about free online training programs paid for by The Manitoba Government. The programs help newcomers and healthcare workers build the language, communication, and academic skills they need to succeed in the Canadian healthcare workplace. 

The programs are for internationally educated nurses and health professionals (people who studied outside Canada), healthcare aides, health unit clerks, and other healthcare workers.
