About TRIEC

The Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council (TRIEC) is a not-for-profit organization working to improve employment outcomes for immigrants and strengthen workforce inclusion.

For more than 20 years, TRIEC has convened employers, governments, community organizations, educational institutions, and professional networks to address barriers to immigrant employment and develop solutions that help skilled immigrants achieve career success. We believe Ontario’s economy is strongest when immigrants can fully contribute their skills, experience, and talent.

TRIEC supports employers in building inclusive workplaces and helps newcomers expand professional networks, access mentorship, develop career skills, and navigate meaningful career pathways. Through collaboration with partners across sectors, we create solutions that support both newcomer success and workforce inclusion.

As a trusted convenor, TRIEC brings together partners to exchange knowledge, identify promising practices, strengthen organizational capacity, and advance workforce inclusion. Our work combines direct programming with broader efforts to build stronger systems, organizations, and partnerships that support immigrant labour market integration.

Through flagship initiatives including the TRIEC Mentoring Partnership (TMP), Professional Immigrant Networks (PINs), and LIFT, TRIEC provides mentorship, professional networking, leadership development, and practical learning opportunities. These initiatives help newcomers build connections and advance their careers while supporting employers, community organizations, and professional networks to recruit, retain, and advance immigrant talent.

Guided by our values of Prosperity, Innovation, and Impact, TRIEC creates opportunities for individuals while strengthening the organizations, partnerships, and systems that contribute to a more inclusive and prosperous economy.
