Conseil consultatif des partenaires de Portail
Ce dernier est composé de sept partenaires qui fournissent des conseils sur les stratégies, les options disponibles et les cadres analytiques liés au développement et à l’exécution de Portail.
Notre principal bailleur de fonds
Le projet Portail est financé principalement par Immigration, Réfugiés et Citoyenneté Canada (IRCC) en tant que projet pilote étalé sur cinq ans. Immigrant Services Calgary a reçu un financement de l’IRCC pour gérer et faciliter la mise en œuvre de Gateway, en collaboration avec les agences du sud de l’Alberta. La Cité des Rocheuses a reçu également un financement de l’IRCC pour assurer le volet francophone de Gateway qui est Portail. Ainsi, le parcours d’intégration francophone est respecté.
Notre partenaire de développement technologique clé
Portail est optimisé par « K2 : Pathway to Settlement », une configuration personnalisée de Salesforce, la technologie bien connue de gestion de la relation client (CRM) basée sur le cloud. K2 a été développé, avec le financement d’IRCC, en tant que projet pilote d’évaluation et de référence des besoins standardisés par l’équipe des services d’établissement du YMCA du sud-ouest de l’Ontario (YSWO). Le projet pilote K2 est opérationnel dans la région de Windsor-Essex en Ontario depuis mars 2020 avec une collaboration d’organismes à but non lucratif portant le nom de « WE Value Partnership ».
