Professional Course vs. College vs. University

• Professional Course – is a short-term course focused on gaining practical knowledge in a given field of study, most frequently in business, hospitality, customer care, etc.
• Career Colleges – are focused both on gaining experience in a given field of study just as on getting a thorough theoretical background of the subject matter. Each course usually lasts between one to three years, including work placement within the studies, depending on the studied course. Courses such as IT, Management, Marketing, Hospitality, or Medicine are very common. Career colleges have several intakes throughout the entire academic year.
• Universities – it is fairly expensive to attend an institution of a Canadian higher education for an international students due to high tuition fees. On the other hand, it is the university students who benefit the most from the changes put in place in June 2014 as they are no longer limited to working on campus only. Moreover, they can also commence working from the very first their of their studies. After graduation, all international university students are eligible for a graduation work permit which is an open work permit for the same duration of time as was the student’s university studies.
