Yung FBI clearance namin nareceive namin in about a month or so despite 2-3 months "normal processing time". Pero kasi nasa US kami noon; mabilis ang courier service at baka iba ang groups na nagpa-process ng local at international requests (not sure though).

Dear C,
Thank you for your enquiry. Unfortunately, the Skilled Migrant Mentoring Program no longer runs. We do however, offer several other employment courses, such as the Skillmax job seeker course, English for Employment and Pathways to Employment.
Skillmax is a job seeker course for migrants with an English level of IELTS 6.5+. The course usually runs over weeks, on 3 to 4 days, and covers everything from job seeking techniques, to writing a resume and cover letter, as well as networking etc. The City East Community College does try to connect most participants to a professional mentor, someone from the same professional background who can meet with the migrant and can explain to them more about their specific profession.
The English for Employment course is very similar, does run over 10 weeks though and has as a requirement that students have an IELTS of 5.5+.
The Employment Pathways course runs over 6 weeks and covers a 2 week work experience placement at the end.
All these courses are government funded and hence free of charge for eligible migrants.
Please note that, because the Skilled Migrant Mentoring Program no longer exists, we only check this email occasionally. You can better reach us under [email protected].
Our next Employment Pathways course starts 16th of July.
The next Skillmax course will probably commence 20th of August, and English for Employment on 15th of October.
If you wish t enrol in one of these courses, please send your current resume, overseas qualification, as well as a copy of your passport and visa to [email protected].
Kind regards,
