    Program Description

    Why this program?To understand the value

    that this program brings to

    the student in terms of

    meeting their immigration

    aspirations, you need to

    understand the available

    immigration vehicles for

    students into Canada and

    their limitations.

    Federal skilled worker

    immigration:

    Limitations: It has only

    quota of 10,000 per year

    with 21 designation and

    maximum 500 for each

    designation. Most of

    them in civil and heath

    care segment. So most

    of Indian students are

    not eligible to this modeland we can say almost

    impossible.

    Provincial nominee

    program

    Limitations: This is

    employer driven stream.

    Students have to figure

    out employers who are

    willing to sponsor PR for

    them. Lot of studentscurrently going to

    Saskatchewan province

    to find the employer

    who can help them with

    PNP but the process

    takes closely 3 years

    and often employers

    exploit the students in

    work due to the student

    dependencies.

    Risks: If company

    undergoes the process

    of selling, merge,

    takeover and

    bankruptcy the PR file

    will be rejected.

    Canadian experience

    class

    Student after

    completion of the 2 year

    program they have to

    work for Canadianemployer for 1 year

    continuously full time in

    NOC OAB. Its often

    hard for student to find

    job after the graduation.

    Moreover they have to

    meet the English

    language (IELTS not less

    than 6 in any and

    overall 6.5) requirements

    at the time of process.

    Accounting Studies is a

    positions.

    4 semesters spread over 16months.

    3Current Student Trends

    Product Positioning

    So what students are doing

    today?

    Most of them are studying 2

    years, spending more than

    $25,000 and obtaining 3

    years work permit. Once

    they get work permit

    students are trying to find

    job under NOC level OAB

    categories but only 5% are

    successful and the rest of

    them look for alternatives.

    While most of them are

    going to Saskatchewan

    province to find an

    employer who can sponsor

    them for Provincial

    Nominee Program (PNP)

    and enable their Canadian

    Permanent Residency

    processing.

    Relocating to another

    province means additional

    relocation costs and risk of

    unknowns (where will I

    stay? will I find a job? will I

    find a sponsor?). Even if

    they find an employer,

    there have been many

    reported instances of

    exploitation wherein the

    students are paid less than

    the hourly wage. Even

    after going through all this

    they are still not sure if they

    would achieve their goal of

    obtaining Permanent

    Residency and even if they

    do, the process takes 53

    months (24 months of

    study+ 6 months work+ 8

    months PNP +15 months for

    PR processing).

    Looking at the student

    hardships, Edu Edge

    wanted to provide a

    product with more

    assurance to the students.

    In this quest Edu Edge has

    invested 2 years of time to

    structure a partnership with

    Lester B Pearson School

    Board for Accounting

    Studies DEP (Vocational

    Diploma) as it is one of the

    only programs that makes

    students eligible along with

    their studies to become a

    Permanent Resident.

    Why and how is this

    possible?

    Due to the aging

    population in Quebec they

    need resources in Finance

    and Accounting. Quebec

    immigration to fulfill this

    requirement is supporting

    such programs where the

    province needs skilled

    workforce in the future by

    awarding immigration

    points.

    Accounting is one such skill

    and students studying

    accounting program are

    eligible for 12 points.

    These 12 points make allthe difference while filing

    for Canadian immigration.

    Fundamentally adding

    these points to the grading

    system makes the student

    eligible for immigration.

    The appeal of the program

    lies in its ability to enable

    students to enter into

    workforce and be eligible

    for Permanent Residency

    while studying. How is this

    possible?

    Quebec has a unique

    immigration policy that

    promotes programs that

    build skills required by the

    province. Accounting is

    one such skill and students

    studying accounting

    program are eligible for 12

    points.

    These 12 points make all

    the difference while filling

    out the Quebec Selection

    process for Canadian

    immigration.

    Quebec has a separate

    visa and immigration

    process compared to rest

    of Canada but the

    eventual outcome of the

    process yields a pan

    Canadian Permanent

    Residency. There are two

    significant add-on steps in

    the Student Visa and

    Immigration process.

    At the admission stage,

    student needs to process a

    Qubec Acceptance

    Certificate (CAQ). This is a

    simple process which can

    be enabled by educational

    consultant.

    The second and more

    significant process step is

    Certificat de slection du

    Qubec (CSQ). This is a

    prerequisite for Permanent

    Residency processing and

    needs to be obtained by all

    residents of Quebec

    province intending to

    process Canadian

    Permanent Residency.

    Receiving a CSQ means

    that Quebec province find

    the student eligible and

    suitable for long term

    residency in Quebec,

    Based on this a student can

    apply for Canadian

    Residency. The CSQ

    application process would

    be enabled by Edu Edge.

    Indian students with a

    Bachelors degree would

    become eligible for CSQ

    application processing

    after 11 months of

    education in Quebec.

    Indian students with Post

    Secondary education in

    India would become

    eligible for CSQ application

    processing after 16 months

    of education in Quebec.

    Upon CSQ application,

    CSQ is approved within 4

    months and students are

    eligible to apply for

    Permanent Residency.

    Based on current

    processing time, it is taking

    about 6 months to get

    Residency CSQ approved

    files. This means that an

    Indian student with

    graduate degree or post

    secondary education who

    has enrolled in this program

    would get Canadian

    Permanent Residency

    along with or before

    completion of the program.
