The MPNP frequently conducts overseas recruiting missions, often in collaboration with employers from Manitoba Province, during which they look for prospective immigrants.

The MPNP accepts requests to make an exploratory visit to Manitoba during set times. This visit helps prospective MPNP applicants to determine if they have a sincere desire and capacity to settle in Manitoba as permanent residents in research communities and job opportunities. Exploratory visits are required to be approved by the MPNP and arranged by invitation only. The MPNP offers information about what to do during the visit and what documents are expected to be taken with them by candidates.
