Cultural Differences — Overseas to Canada

Format3–4 hours · online or in person
CertificateCertificate of Completion (instructor-led) or Digital Learner Certificate (self-paced)

You already know how to work. What's different here is how a Canadian site runs — who you report to, how people talk, what gets written down, and what gets you sent home. This course covers the stuff nobody tells newcomers on day one.

What we cover

  • How a Canadian site is organized — GC, subs, foreman, supervisor
  • Communication on site: asking questions is professional, not weak
  • Punctuality, documentation and why "if it's not written, it didn't happen"
  • Safety culture and the right to refuse unsafe work
  • What employers actually look for in the first 90 days
