For IRCC Study Permit:
Distance Learning for International Students. Ref "IRCC Website"
Distance learning can be through e-learning, correspondence, or internet courses. Distance learning is a process by which technology is used in ways where the student does not have to physically be in the place where the teaching is taking place.
Since by definition, distance learning does not require one to be in Canada, a study permit cannot be issued for this type of course.
- For example, if a foreign national authorized to work in Canada is prohibited from engaging in studies as per a condition of their work permit, they are allowed to engage in distance learning courses.
If a study permit required for those in Canada on valid work permit, the Immigration Office procedures are the following:
- Can-College is a DLI and fully authorised to issue LOAs to all eligible students, which can be used to apply for a study visa or permit in Canada or outside of Canada pursuant to regulations.
- All online or in-class students will be getting a LOA (letter of acceptance) from Can-College, and they may apply for a study permit if required.
We will strongly advise all students to consult with their legal counsel for further assessment and advice in this matter.
You may have both a work permit and a study permit if there is no conflict of work time and study time. In that case, you must apply for a study permit in Canada.
Q - Are Can-College's diploma programs approved as "post-secondary school education" and acceptable by the IRCC and nationally in Canada?
A - Yes, all of our diploma programs are "Canadian one-year post-secondary" programs and has been approved by the Superintendent under section 23 of the Act, Ontario. As such, they meet the IRCC’s, or any other agency's, criteria for a "Canadian one-year post-secondary" program.
Q - Is the IRCC responsible to approve "Canadian one-year post-secondary" degrees, diploma, or certificates?
A - No, the following Government ministries are in charge of post-secondary education by province and territory, and are responsible to approve colleges and programs.
Q - Will our diplomas, or other vocational programs, be considered as evidence of a "Canadian one-year post-secondary" education for the IRCC application in the related category?
A - Yes, since the Canadian Career Education College is registered as a private career college under the Private Career Colleges Act, 2005, a Designated Learning Institution (DLI), and has its programs been approved as vocational programs under the Private Career Colleges Act, 2005” Ontario, all vocational programs meet the criteria of a "Canadian one-year post-secondary" education for this purpose.
