Trades and Career oriented programs are the best option for intended migration

Most students who migrate to Canada from India choose options like Management, Hospitality or other general programs where they feel they can make money fast. I would advise students to pick up career oriented programs as that's the way to get into the labor force faster and also to make better money. Unlike in India where jobs are classified as white collar and blue collar jobs and the money that you make is linked to the position you hold, here in Canada there is equality of work and most kind of jobs are well paid.

So it is always better to study about the economic environment of the place you plan to go and what kind of careers have a better opportunity of getting jobs faster. Here in Canada especally in BC, Alberta the industry where you have better opportunities are in the field of oil, mechanical and technical areas.

Trades like Aircraft maintenance, refrigeration, automotive technicians etc are in hot demand over here and with a Canadian diploma or degree in such a trade it makes life far more easier that being a manager in a Starbucks or McDonald's where though you are a manager your pay is much lesser than the trades mentioned above!!



So always make a decision based on current situation and not what maybe!!

Feel free to ask questions on this blog and we will answer in the best possible manner!!
