Diversis has recently offered a workshop on "Result based management for Settlement Agencies" to the employees of the Multicultural Association Chaleur Region (MACR).

This workshop aimed to support the MACR in the prepration of its 2009-2011 work plan.

The participants had the opportunity to benefit from the expertise of Cyrille Simard, a well known expert in the field of result based management planning, implementation and evaluation.

Diversis has been chosen by the Consortium national de formation en santé (CNFS) to develop an assessment framework for its "Integration of Internationally Educated Francophone Health Professionals in French-Speaking Minority Communities" project.

The main objective of this project is to increase the number of internationally educated Francophones in health who practice as Francophone health professionals in French-speaking minority communities. The project is an action-based research in both rural and urbain areas and it focuses on key factors that foster the integration of Francophone health professionals in four provinces: Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, and New Brunswick. The project is implemented in collaboration with immigrant service agencies, training institutions, employers, and regulatory agencies.

To develop this assesment framework, Diversis has partnered with Infotelmed, an applied research company specialized in e-health, telehealth, telemedicine and health care telematics.

L’Association canadienne-française de l’Alberta (ACFA) has hired us to facilitate a day of training on cross-cultural dialogue. This training, held last November, brought together forty participants who were given the opportunity to learn and share about living together in this province "renewed francophonie".

Lori-Ann Cyr went there to work with the Franco-Albertans for this activity.
