i believe this is a dated post but I believe their's still some insight that needs more light here. Pls is pgd(post graduate diploma) same thing with Pgcert like u mentioned?Reason for this is that, I'm graduate of B.eng in civil engineering aspiring to study supply chain and operation management a pgd programme in canada. however,does my academic progression hinders my chances of visa approvement?


In Canada, a Postgraduate Diploma (PGD) and a Postgraduate Certificate (PG Cert) are not the same, though they are similar. PGD is offered at Universities, while PG Cert is offered by colleges. Also Some PGD programs tends to have higher admission requirements than that of a PG Cert most especially in the aspect of grades.

Both are aimed at providing further education and specialization after completing an undergraduate degree, but there are a few key differences:

1. Length of Study: A PGD typically lasts one to two years, while a PG Cert usually spans a shorter period, often less than a year.

2. Depth of Study: A PGD generally offers a more in-depth and comprehensive study compared to a PG Cert. It may include a project or a thesis, whereas a PG Cert is more about gaining specific skills and knowledge in a focused area.

3. Purpose: PGDs are often pursued by those looking to deepen their expertise in a specific field or pivot to a new area that may be related or unrelated to their undergraduate studies. PG Certs are usually aimed at specific skill enhancement or updating current knowledge to align with industry demands.

Regarding visa approval, having a clear academic progression or a logical career pathway that aligns with your studies can indeed be beneficial. However, it is not typically a hindrance unless there are major discrepancies or inconsistencies in your application. Your move from Civil Engineering to Supply Chain and Operation Management can be justified in your statement of purpose by highlighting the relevance of management and operational skills in engineering projects, and your desire to broaden your professional scope. This explanation can show a thoughtful career progression plan, which can be advantageous for your visa application.

Good morning everyone,

Can anyone help me with how to get a master program in any Canadian university. I studied Animal science and biotechnology.
When i did my research all the sch I could get are always asking for references from and supervisors as part of the application requirements.

I just someone to guide me and put me through, i want to apply for September 2024 intake.

If you're going for a thesis based Masters (research based Masters) in Canada, all those things they asked you is compulsory most especially securing a supervisor before you apply. It is usually Mandatory by most Canadian Universities, and you can only do that via mailing (COLD MAILING) a Professor at a Canadian University you have aligning research interests with based on your Academic Background.

Also note that, in most cases as mentioned on the Admission Requirements of Canadian Universities for a Masters degree (most especially Thesis-based Masters), you need to have a Minimum of 2nd Class Upper and good grades (GPA) in your Last two years in the University.

For the application process check the Admission section of the school website and you would see information and guides on how to apply.

I studied Business Admin, but I work as a product designer. I'm thinking of studying interactive media or animation, but I was told it is easier for me to get admitted into a business related course.

The business admin program you graduated from 10 years ago or there about shows that you have a long Study Gap.

To show career progression as a Product designer or if you have been into related jobs for the past 5 to 10 years , it's will be ok and convincing for a Canadian Visa Officer if you go for Post-graduate certificate programs such as UX/User Experience, Interactive media/animation etc. at Canadian colleges

But if there are Business Management components in your work experience, then you can go for a PostGraduate Certificate in a Business related program.

Please what's the importance of schools that offer pgwp?
Why do ppl avoid schools that don't offer pgwp

The Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) in Canada is a significant factor for international students when choosing a school. Here are some reasons why international students may avoid schools in Canada that don't offer PGWP:

1. **Work Opportunities:** The PGWP allows international students to work in Canada after completing their studies. Institutions not offering PGWP is less attractive as students value the opportunity to gain Canadian work experience.

2. **Canadian Experience:** Many students see the PGWP as a pathway to gain Canadian work experience, which can be crucial for those considering applying for permanent residency or exploring long-term career opportunities in Canada.

3. **Post-Study Settlement:** PGWP facilitates the transition from studying to working and potentially obtaining permanent residency. Students often prefer institutions that support this process.

4. **Economic Considerations:** Having the ability to work in Canada post-graduation can help international students offset their living expenses and contribute to their financial well-being.

5. **Competitive Advantage:** Graduates with Canadian work experience have a competitive edge in the job market. Institutions offering PGWP are more appealing to students who prioritize gaining a foothold in the Canadian workforce.

6. **Long-Term Plans:** Students planning to stay in Canada long-term may be deterred from institutions that don't offer PGWP, as it aligns with their aspirations for settling in the country.

7. **Networking Opportunities:** Access to the Canadian job market during the PGWP period provides students with valuable networking opportunities, which can be crucial for career advancement.

8. **Enhanced Educational Experience:** Students may view PGWP as an extension of their educational experience, enabling them to apply their skills and knowledge in a real-world setting.

In a nutshell, it's advisable for an international student to always go for a school that offers PGWP

Hello Everyone here,
I met with some travel agents and I was advised that my Uni grade (3rd class. 1.65 CGPA) was too low to get me admitted into a program of my choice at any college, despite having almost a decade of professional experience in it. Is this anyway true? I'll be glad if someone can share their experience if they have encountered something like this.

You can leverage on your decade of experience to apply for a Post Graduate Certificate in a Program at a college related to that your decade of work experience (Career progression).

That being said,

Elders please I need an advise for my wife:
The issue is that my wife's dad forced her to read Computer Science against her wish. She was so scared of him and couldn't challenge him because he threatened not to pay her fees if not for that course.

So, she had to accept it because he was responsible for the fees.

She struggled and struggled with that course and came out with a Third Class.

She actually wanted Public Health or any Health related course.

So, if she sees any opportunity to study Public Health or any Health related course, she'll be really happy.

Can she apply for a health related program in Canada and not get rejected, considering the fact that there's no record of career progression.
Please advise. quote author=Clikkz post=127683326]Hi Everyone, I’ll make this short as possible. I think this wouldn’t just help me alone.
I’ve been scrolling for a while and I’m kind of confused.

1. Do you think I should go for a one year diploma considering it’s too short till I get a job?
2. Can you suggest or recommend schools for that?
3. The whole application process from scratch is very hard to understand for a beginner can you help with a summary or guide?

Hi

Public Health is only available at Masters/PHD level in Canada, and an applicant need to have a minimum of 2.1 (with good GPA in their last two years in the University) and relevant degree e.g. Microbiology, Biochemistry, Food Science etc. Interestingly, someone who studied Computer science can still be able to study Public Health at MSC/PHD level cos Public Health has Computer Science oreiented research areas like : Health Informatics, Epidemiological modelling, Bioinformatics, Health Data Analytics, Digital Health Intervention etc. (NO KNOWLEDGE IS LOST). Due to her grade, she won't be able to do a Masters.


First Option she can consider
For Academic and Career Progression, with her Computer Science background, If she has some work experience that has to do with the Health sector and/or she can use Excel for Data Analytics or she knows how to use the likes of R, Python etc. for data analytics , she can go for a Post Graduate Certificate Program in HEALTH ANALYTICS. It has some connection with Public health/Epidemiology. There is a school in Ontario called CAMBRIAN COLLEGE, they have that program. She can explore it and look at the courses done in that program and see if it's something she can go for.

Second option she can consider, if she has work experience in the health sector (career progression), the programs below can/might suffice:

PG. Cert in Health Related programs

You can't do a Masters in Canada with an HND. They require a Bachelor's degree for their Masters ...

If you want to study in CANADA as an HND graduate, your only option is to apply for a POST GRADUATE CERTIFICATE (PG.CERT) program at a Canadian college in a Program related to your HND degree or your work experience (even if your work experience is not related to your HND degree).

Hello house, I want to do my PhD in Agronomy in Canada. Is it possible to get a fully funded PhD program? Do supervisors take students in their lab for fully funded PhD like in USA? Thanks for ur answers

Yes, it is possible to find fully funded Ph.D. programs in Agronomy in Canada. Many universities in Canada offer various forms of financial support, including scholarships, research assistantships, and fellowships for Ph.D. students.

In Canada, like in the USA, supervisors often take students into their labs for fully funded Ph.D. positions. Professors and researchers may have research grants or projects that allocate funding for graduate students, covering tuition and providing a stipend for living expenses.

To increase your chances of securing a fully funded position, it's essential to thoroughly research potential advisors and programs. Look for professors whose research aligns with your interests, and reach out to them to express your interest in their work (Cold Mailing). Additionally, explore Advertised Graduate Positions in Agronomy or related field, scholarship opportunities offered by the university, government agencies, or external organizations.

Remember to check the specific requirements and application processes for each university and program you are interested in to ensure you meet their criteria.

Well there are different angles to what you heard. Some say some of these things on YouTube videos and other social media platforms based on reasons best known to them (probably based on their own experience , their location in Canada etc.). Also the picture immigrants paint about Canada and abroad in general is not what it seems like.

Finally, we can't use the outcry of some few people to generalize a particular situation. It varies based on different factors e.g. The Province an individual is located, Occupation in demand in that province and lots more.

It's a case by case scenario.

Since you have a 2.1, start hustling for a Thesis-based Master's in Electrical Engineering against Fall 2024 (September). You stand a chance of getting a Funded Thesis-based Master's degree at a Canadian university.

Look for Profs. as much as you can at Canadian Universities whose Research focus is on Renewable Energy Systems or related research area and cold mail them non-generically. Significant amount of them do get grants for Research and are always looking for prospective graduate students to recruit to their Research lab.

For a Masters in Canada, you need to have a minimum of 2.1 and good GPA in your last two years in the University.

In sequel to your grade, a POST GRADUATE CERTIFICATE (PG.CERT)/Post Graduate Diploma in your intended Program at a College (not a University) is your best shot.

See the links below for such Program (they all offer PGWP,you can confirm it yourself on the CHECK DLI section of IRCC Website)

Please can someone help with useful information about CBBC Career College in Canada.

Student and work permit....

CBBC college in NOVA SCOTIA is a Designated Learning Institute (DL), but does not offer PGWP (POST GRADUATE WORK PERMIT). See the screenshot below

As an international student, you're expected to apply to a School in Canada that is a DLI (DESIGNATED LEARNING INSTITUTE) and offers PGWP

You would find the contents in the links below useful

Hi everyone,

Please 🙏🙏🙏🙏 I need your advice, my wife has a b.sc. and m.sc. Biochemistry 2018. She's presently working as a health assistant in one of the private hospital in Lagos since 2019. I hope she will be able to convince VO. Some people said it is very difficult for VO to approve or issue visa to anyone going for a nursing from Nigeria.

Is it advisable for her to go for b.sc nursing or start with practical nursing in Canada ?

The bottom line is that surest route to achieve her dream.

I need your contributions, please help somebody.


It's not advisable for your wife to go for a BSc. That will be tagged as a Wrong Academic Progression by a Canadian Visa Officer cos she already has an higher Academic qualification (MASTERS). She should go for a PG.CERT PROGRAM related to her work experience (career progression) e.g. HEALTH CARE ADMINISTRATION

PG. Cert in Health Related programs

Please I’m also in need of help applying Seneca College or any other college( Jan/ may 2024 intake) in Manitoba that has high acceptance rate and accept 2.2. Also, I studied biochemistry as an undergraduate and I don’t wish to study any draining course as such again. What other related courses can I study that is high in demand or is it advisable to switch to other courses. Please I’m open to suggestions.

Seneca College is in Ontario Province and not Manitoba Province.

See the link below for Biochemistry related PG.cert programs and Colleges offering it.

I doubt if you can switch to study a POST GRADUATE CERTIFICATE Program at a college, cos that program will require a related academic background or work experience.

It's either you go for something related to your Academic background (Biochemistry) or your work experience (even if your work experience is not related to your Biochemistry field).
