Introduction

In Canada, education is regulated by the provincial governments through the individual ministries of education. Under the guidance of the respective ministries of education there are smaller bodies called boards of education or district school boards which oversee the individual schools or educational institutions.

Schools and Institutions

The education system in Canada consists of both publicly-funded and private schools, including: community colleges/ technical institutes, career colleges, language schools and universities.

Programs of study

The Canadian Universities and Colleges offer a wide range of internationally accepted programs. University degrees are offered at three consecutive levels —Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctoral. Many universities and colleges also offer diploma and certificate programs. Colleges and institutes undertake diploma and certificate programs as their primary activity, and some offer degrees in areas of particular specialization.

Teaching

Teaching in Canadian educational institutions is usually delivered by lecture, supplemented by weekly individual or small group supervision ("tutorials") and, if appropriate, practical classes and laboratory work.

Environment

The Canadian schools provide a very friendly environment. The Canadian students both domestic and international are from different ethnic backgrounds. This enables the international students to interact closely with various people with different culture and background.

Canadian educational institutions offer a wide range of opportunities for foreign students. There are different types of schools and institutions in Canada. They are Primary and Secondary Schools, Post Secondary Institutions (Universities and Colleges), Private Career and Vocational Schools, and Language Schools.

Universities:

Canadian universities provide a full spectrum of undergraduate and graduate degree programs, with faculty undertaking research of national and international importance. Canadian universities are committed to:

• The importance of higher education for the individual and for the economic, social and cultural development of society.
• The entitlement of learners to a quality higher education, the results of which will be recognized by society.
• The provision of responsive, high quality education that is competitive with that offered anywhere else in the world.
• The provision of complete and reliable information about the quality of their educational programs to maintain public confidence, to support mobility of graduates and to ensure the worldwide credibility of Canadian universities.

Many universities/colleges in Canada have on-campus residences, allowing for a welcoming immersion into campus community life. With over 100 universities in major cities and more rural communities across the country, university programs in Canada are easily accessible, and attract a diverse student body from home and abroad.

Canadian Colleges:

Canadian Colleges also offer a large number of programs to the international students. Because education is a provincial or territorial responsibility, these institutions vary in mandate, management models and policy frameworks. However, they share the primary functions of responding to the training needs of business, industry, the public service sectors and the educational needs of vocationally oriented secondary school graduates. Historically, these institutions offered diplomas and certificates, not degrees. However, many have university transfer programs and some are now offering degree programs.
