by Natasha - February 16, 2011
When you visit the website canlearn[dot]ca for links and information, you get vital guidance from the federal government of Canada.
The advice is on such matters as learning about you, finding careers, finding the right school for your child and even about student loan resources.
How to find the right career
Working in Canada Tool explains details of each job, even what a forestry worker does. Thus you have an insight on jobs making it easier to choose your career path.
When looking for jobs type in one key word relevant to your search and see the results. If a word does not work, you can always type in another key word, but one word at a time and go ahead.
Specific pages for job search
Many government agencies and employers use NOC or National Occupational Classification system to announce classification of jobs in Canada. The Occupation Search Tool page has a menu on the right side which guides you to search for jobs by category or by alphabetical order.
Know the training required for the job
Once you have found the right job and career for yourself, read about its educational requirements. Search for the schools and programmes that facilitate such training, if you need to acquire it.
The study workload for post-secondary students is huge, so many schools offer study skills counselling to these students. The counselling helps the students to cope up and be successful.
Find the right school offering the required programme through distance learning
So now that you have identified the career you wish to pursue and know its educational requirements, look for the right programme and school that offers the training and the one that suits you.
Canada is a vast country and sometimes it is difficult for students to leave home for studies. Distance learning helps such students to pursue further studies through the internet, cable TV and correspondence courses.
The Canadian Virtual University site is a good source to know about its more than 300 programmes and over 2400 courses it has to offer students through the electronic medium or correspondence.
Some famous colleges in Canada also offer distance learning facility and their names are given below.
