EDUCATION SYSTEM IN CANADA
Canadian system allows you to get a certificate or diploma after every year of study (depending on the length of a study):
- 1 year – Certificate of Completion
- 2 years – Diploma
- 3 years – Advanced Diploma
- 4 years – Bachelor Degree
It will take you 4 years to obtain a bachelor’s degree. On the other hand, should you not complete a full cycle, you will be able to get some certificate for the work done.
It is not common to go to Masters degree program straight after college because you will be considered overqualified for the job market. Instead, students are taking one or two year postgraduate programs and only after a few years of a work experience they enrol to master’s degree program or stay in the industry with a degree they already obtained.
International students must know that a student visa is also a work visa. That means that you can work part time during the week (20 hours/week) and during holidays and school break, you can work full time, 40 hours a week.
Anyone studying in Canada qualifies for Post-Graduation Work Permit. If you complete one year of studies, you are qualified for a one-year work permit. For two years you are entitled to work legally and stay for three years.
If you have a family and you decide to study in Canada, your spouse is automatically entitled to work, and your child can go to a public school for free.
