CLIC-LEARNING is also contracted by the Iraqi Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research to implement a scholarship program, in partnership with World Universities Services of Canada (WUSC), that allows Iraqi students to undertake post-secondary education in Canada.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">In addition, CLIC-LEARNING will be launching a package of services to the private, public and not-for-profit sectors in the Middle East and Africa. The services will include specialized certificate training, English Language education with pathways to opportunities in Canada, and services to international students wishing to study in Canada.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Both institutions will work closely to develop new programing for the region, as well as to identify new opportunities for collaboration in Canada and internationally.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>QUOTES <\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cCLIC-LEARNING is looking forward to implementing the New Horizons initiative with Willis College.
