Hello, our amiable gurus here. Please I need your help.
What program would you advise someone who's a graduate of Bus Admin and MBA (Marketing) to go for? I'm asking for another sister of mine.
Can she go for another Masters program?

?

Her current job description is Customer Experience and Retention Management, basically Customers' Complaint Management and Resolution.
She manages the activities/operations of the call center - the inbound, outbound and social media sections. Although, she's not a Call Center specialist, she manages what they do.
She also manages the KYC (Know Your Customer) processes.

Your responses will be greatly appreciated.

@Lekiboboe, please sir, kindly come to our rescue. Thank you.
To the bolded, await response from the gurus

From the tone of her current job description (just as you mentioned)

I feel she can go for a

PG. Cert program in Public Relations

That being said, she should take her time and explore (google) the programs listed below and check their respective overview, course outlines (course curriculum), tuition amount for international students, admission intakes etc. and choose the one that suites her, then apply.

All current vaccinated policies will still apply if you are unvaccinated.

The best is to get the vaccine and save yourself the stress of being vaccine-marginalized because that is where we are heading to in some months time.
Yes I understand

I won't be able to meet up with the 2nd dose, reasons why I decided not to take the vaccine in Nigeria (the 6weeks interval before taking the 2nd dose and the 14 days wait before travelling) & it is said that your 1st & 2nd dose must be taken at same location.

International students and travel to Canada - Canada.ca

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/2021/07/international-students-and-travel-to-canada.html

From the post in the link above it says;

Eliminating the 3-night government-authorized hotel stay requirement for all air travellers arriving after 12:01 a.m. EDT on August 9, 2021. Until that time, non-vaccinated travellers flying to Canada must complete their 3-night hotel stay while they wait for their on-arrival test results

Baba mi 'Walking Google' Good evening,

This is already the case for international students who are fully vaccinated with CA-recognized vaccines since July 5.

However, the latest coming out from the CA immigration & health press is that this will be extended to non-essential foreign travelers, American citizens & CA PRs living in the USA. Also important to note in this new info is that 'Fully vaccinated travelers will not need a post-arrival test unless they have been randomly selected for an on-arrival test.'

For Unvaccinated guys; There are no changes to mandatory testing requirements for unvaccinated travelers. Unvaccinated travelers will still have to undergo on-arrival and day-eight testing.

The bottom line with this new info is that Canadian borders have been fully opened provided you are vaccinated.
Alright, thanks Chief

Does that mean international students who are unvaccinated would still need to do the Mandatory 3-days hotel quarantine after that August 9 or they would just do the post-covid test and begin their 14 days Airbnb Quarantine straight away?

Thank you @Lekiboboe for your response, I was actually considering Seneca college... course Financial services- Client services Ontario College Diploma...Don't know if it fits.

Since your present Job position is an Account Manager/Recovery Officer, in terms of logical & career progression, you can go for a PG. Cert program In Accounting or Accounting related program

See the link below for PG. Cert in Accounting programs, google them one by one & do your due diligence
https://www.nairaland.com/6567181/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/247#103188415
You Welcome. The course might fit, but qualification wise, it doesn't. You are a Bachelor's Degree holder, why go for a College Diploma instead of a Post Graduate Certificate (PG. Cert) programhuh When you apply for a Study Visa, a Visa Officer might see your Purpose of Visit (Study) to Canada as not convincing enough due to the Academic Qualification of the program you want to go for at Seneca college

You might want to consider going for PG. Cert in Financial Planning, Financial Planning Services.

Do a research on PG. Cert, Financial Planning programs in the link below, check the course outlines (curriculum) of each program, It's possible you would see the one's you can apply for.

I studied computer science and graduated with a 4.19 cgpa.

And yes, I mean academic cv sir.
Thanks for the idea. I am applying to simon fraser University by the way.
Ok Chief.

Dope CGPA you got there, but it's not always about CGPA alone, you need some other intellectual packaging, so you can be able to submit a strong, airtight application that can make you stand out, cos graduate school application in Canada, USA , etc. is damn competitive.

That being said,
take your time & go through the contents in the link below. All you need to know about Graduate School application, GRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP, how to get across to a Professor you have something in common with (in terms of Research Areas) is there. There is also an ACADEMIC CV attached there, draft it base on your ACADEMIC profile & Educational Background. Anything you see on that Academic CV that you don't have e.g Publications, ignore it
https://www.nairaland.com/6567181/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/321#103487629

In your best interest, to avoid any form of disappointment, don't put all your eggs in one basket by applying to only Simon Fraser University, there are lots of Canadian Universities offering Computer Science with lots of Research Areas. It's not a bad thing if you get multiple admission/Graduate Scholarship Opportunities in more than 10 Canadian Universities.

See the link below for;
Universities in Canada offering Computer Science (more than 35 universities)
https://www.universitystudy.ca/search-programs/?k=Computer+Science&program_level_merged=Master%27s+degree&program_language=ENGLISH

Google and Explore them all.

In order to increase your chances of getting admitted to a Graduate school in Canada, your RESEARCH INTERESTS in COMPUTER SCIENCE is very important. There must be a Particular research area or research areas in Computer Science you want to work on for your thesis-based Masters degree. It's those Professors whose Computer Science research Areas aligns with yours you should do research on before mailing them (Cold Mail). The contents in the link below will guide you on that.

So take Bull by the horn!!! Good luck

I am currently writing my cv, I am so confused guys.
I just finished my nysc this February, I have no research or work experience.

Any idea on how to make my cv more presentable even with the research experience lacking.

Please any kind hearted person here should help me with samples or advice on how to go about this, preferably from a fresh graduate.
CV for what? Are your referring to Academic CV for Graduate School Application (Masters/PHD)

As regards Research Experience - so you know, your Bachelor's degree Final year thesis (Project) is a Research Experience.

As regards Work Experience - the Job you did at your PPA for One-year during your NYSC is a Work Experience

You sound like you want to go for a Thesis-based MASTERS degree in Canada, if yes ,
- Do you have a Minimum of 2.1?
- Is your last two years CGPA (e.g 400 L & 500 L or 300 L & 400L) very strong?
- What did you study in the University?

Based on your 5 years Job experience as an Administrative Assistant, you can go for a PG. cert program in Human Resources management (HRM).

That being said, go through all contents in the link below, check each PG in HRM programs and the schools offering them to see the ones that fall within your 4 million budget, if you are able to see one with that tuition range, apply.

I’m saying the one the hospital will give you same day is not what you will use, there another one the government has to send which can come the next day. That one has a QR code for scanning at the airport .


For instance I did my test at lanca lancet on the 26 of June, got my result same day and thought that was it.
Monday morning I received another message from Lagos government of same covid test with a QR code .


I printed that one out and when I went to the airport , they asked for it and scanned it , the test showed sample was collected 26 but result was made ready 28 of June and I traveled 28 of June so was in sync with their 72 hrs stamps


So the person should travel 19 because govt can take time to send final results with QR code , they can send it 17 of April and he can travel 18 and meet up .
Now I fully understand. Thanks for the detailed based on experience response

If In the morning , he should leave April 19 but it depends .

When you do a test at the clinic , result would be sent to the person on 17 but that’s not what he’d use at the airport, but the one from the government with QR code which they’d send luckily 18 or 19 (morning)April and so would meet the 72 hrs stamp.
Thanks Liana.....Well-Appreciated

From what you just said, if one can do the test in Nigeria on April 17 & get the result that same April 17 (in the evening), does that mean he/she can travel April 18 and arrive Canada April 19 to meet the 72 hrs Stamp in order to avoid the COVID-19 test result from Nigeria from becoming Obsolete?
