The EMPIRICAL Project is a series of 12
packages of academic resource materials for courses in the area of
immigration and settlement, focusing on the Canadian context. The course
materials are available both online and in CD-based versions that are
ready to be offered through distance or on-campus education. Instructors
are invited to take a closer look at the materials available for use in
their own courses or in the development of new courses and programs at
their institutions.
Funded by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC), Ontario Region, in
partnership with CERIS and other educational institutions, the EMPIRICAL
Project is now hosted by the University of Toronto and administered by
