Canada is considered the best country for foreign students

According to the latest Emerging Futures report published by IDP Connect, Canada ranked first among international study destinations, with 26 percent of respondents selecting it as their preferred option.

The USA followed Canada with 20% and the UK and Australia in joint third place (19%). While the US was perceived as providing the best quality of education, Canada was rated number one for graduate employment prospects, work benefits, welfare, etc.

The findings also showed that according to over two-thirds (66%) of respondents, proper implementation of post-graduation employment opportunities can result in long-term benefits for both students and the receiving nations.

BCPNP updates the guidelines regarding the selection of candidates

On April 14, 2022, British Columbia clarified guidelines regarding the selection of candidates and issuance of Invitations to Apply (ITAs).

The province uses the information applicants provide in registrations to rank, select, and invite candidates and issues ITAs based on those criteria to meet BC’s economic and labour market needs.

Education, language skills, occupation, work experience, etc. are some of the main attributes that the province considers when inviting candidates.

In addition, the province issues targeted invitations to support its priorities, such as supporting specific business sectors and encouraging regional immigration.
