Windmill Microlending is a Canadian non-profit offering low-interest career loans to help newcomers pay for the education they need to succeed in Canada. Since 2005, Windmill has supported over 12,500 immigrants and refugees to overcome underemployment and succeed in their careers.
We partner with institutions to help their members cover costs of tuition, accreditation, relocation and living costs. Our affordable loans are designed to meet the unique needs of immigrant clients, who often cannot access mainline credit, by providing a fixed interest rate that is lower than other financing options.
Windmill Microlending and CIBC have partnered to support internationally-trained dentists looking to advance through the NDEB (National Dental Examining Board) equivalency process and continue their careers in Canada. Windmill can help you afford the related costs of assessment, training, licensing exams, supplies and even a living allowance during a study period.
A Windmill loan provides the support you’ll need to launch your accreditation journey successfully, and our unique partnership with CIBC enables you throughout the licensing process.
