Educational institutions promote Canadian visas for students in Malaysia
January 20 2010 by Liam Clifford
Malaysia the target for a new Canada immigration initiative to entice students to The Great White North.
A group of educational institutions from Canada are set to
visit Malaysia to promote studying in Canada to young people who may be
considering applying for a Canadian visa to allow them to study
abroad.
Millions of young people decide to study in another country each
year, with people from Asia particularly keen to experience living in Canada,
Australia or the UK in order to experience a different culture, access the best
education and learn English.
Representatives from more than 20
institutions will be presenting at events in Kuala Lumpur on 23-24 January, then
they will travel to Kuching for an event on 26 January at the Hyatt Regency
hotel from 2pm.
Delegates from the Canadian immigration department will
also be on hand to help guide interested students on applying for a Canadian
student visa. Guidance will also be offered on what is required for acceptance
onto a course starting this coming September.
Courses including
engineering, computer science, biotechnology and actuarial science will be
showcased in the hope that students will be attracted to study in Canada.
Studying in Canada can offer students the opportunity to live in Canada
permanently after they finish their studies.
