Advantage Canada : Where
nature and nurture meet....
When you study English or French in Canada, you will
learn so much more than the pleasant pronunciation
of Canadian English or the wonderful romance
language, French: You will learn about the beauty of
a country that has over two million lakes, more than
1000 parks, four distinct seasons, and great
geographic diversity. Canada's natural wonders draw
many students from around the world and bring much
pleasure to the 30 million inhabitants of this great
country.
Adding to its splendor, Canada ranks among the top
five counties in the world in terms of life
expectancy, quality of education, and gross domestic
product (GDP). This high standard of living
contributes to the equally high standards of
healthcare, social systems, and overall lifestyle.
The consistency of
standards is very important to Canadians, and
ensures that you will experience only the best
quality of instruction.
Whether you choose to study on the East Coast, the
West Coast, or anywhere in between, you will not be
disappointed.
Studying
in Canada will open your world to the beauty
of a country that welcomes people from all
over the world and offers them experiences
that will form memories to last a lifetime.

In Canada, education is regulated by each separate
provincial government through the individual
ministries of education located in Canada’s 10
provinces and 3 territories. The ministries of
education oversee smaller bodies called boards of
education or district school boards which in turn
oversee the individual schools.

Plan for Your Future
Choosing a destination for your higher studies should be
carefully considered.
International Experience
In today's knowledge based economies, higher education is
not just a stepping-stone to success; it is a requirement
and a life-long endeavour. Workforces today are
internationally mobile, making it beneficial to have
internationally-recognized education and experience. Not
only is the high quality of Canadian education recognized
around the world, but students also have an opportunity to
gain valuable work experience in Canada either during their
program or after graduation before returning home.
Innovation and Leadership
Canada is one of the highest spenders per capita on
education in the world. In a recent OECD study, Canadian
secondary students ranked amongst the top six out of
thirty-two countries. Many educational institutions are
centres of excellence in research. Canada is proud to be an
innovator and world leader in sectors such as business,
computer science, telecommunications, information systems,
aerospace, oil and gas, petrochemicals, health sciences,
environmental protection and tourism. Many programs in
Canada have international content.
Safe and
Welcoming Environment
With a very low crime rate and a multicultural society that
welcomes diversity and promotes tolerance, Canada offers a
safe and friendly environment for international students.
