Newcomer GPS: Exploring an Integrated Digital Pathway to Settlement
Newcomer GPS: Exploring an Integrated Digital Pathway to Settlement is an OTEC-led research project that will test the integrated technology solution CareerAtlas within Service Provider Organizations (SPO) pre-arrival and hybrid settlement services in Canada. Newcomer GPS will evaluate CareerAtlas’s ability to enhance the decision-making and integration outcomes for newcomer job seekers through:
- Data analytics;
- Assessments;
- Career pathing;
- Job matching;
- The identification of opportunities for skills development;
- Direct engagement with newcomers, leveraging data and intelligence at the system level.
The primary outcomes of Newcomer GPS are to:
- Improve clients’ decision-making on settlement through access to destinations, increased employment opportunities, and increased awareness of individual skills.
- Improve SPOs’ delivery capacity to support newcomers into the labor market.
