Types of study programs in Canada and how they differ
Let's break down what the most popular training programs in Canada are.
Canadian higher education system has its own characteristics. And it can be different from your country. Therefore, when a prospective student begins to wonder about higher education in Canada, the terms "bachelor's degree" or "master's degree" are understandable, but "diploma programs" or "certificate programs" raise questions.
What is a certificate and a diploma from a Canadian educational institution, how long does studying on them last, who they can suit, and what career prospects they open to graduates — let's discuss all of this.
We will look at the following types of programs:
- Certificate Programs;
- Diploma Programs;
- Graduate Certificate Programs (Postgraduate Certificate Programs);
- Graduate Diploma Programs (Postgraduate Diploma Programs).
