Dear members,

For anglophone PR, whats are the better options of study in Montreal for entering into the dynamic job market with brighter future prospects (either in Canada / Gulf or else where later on) on quick bases? I have studied Chemistry to postgraduate level.

I could not find anything pertaining to Chemistry other than
1-Analytical Lab Technician - Dawson College,
2-Bio-pharmaceutical Production Technology - John Abbott College

If some one can guide me about some short courses at other institute including UoConcordia, UoMcGill, UoM, UoLaval, UoBishop, UoSherbrooke or UQAM, I will be highly obliged for that.

My main interest is to join any Pharmaceutical, petroleum, petrochemical or chemical industry. I prefer the study option with minimum tenure/duration.

Your insight about the study option will be much appreciated.

Thanks

My comment will probably be brutal & upsetting :(.

Learn French.

Having said that, what is your status in Qc, your current completed education level and work experience? I know of a few people with decent jobs in MTL without French.

Thanks for your kind comment; when I have shown my lack of knowledge and put my self at stake of others experience, I am open to any kind of comment. But your kind is by no way brutal and upsetting.

I am PR, QSW immigrant, holding master of science in Chemistry. I have diversified work experience; in different fields varying from sales, research, teaching, supervision, customer care etc for about 10- 12 years.

John Abbott seems to get decent reviews.

What visa are you waiting for? What is your ultimate goal after the studies? Canadian PR? QSW? Returning to your country with an overseas qualification?

What "upgrade"/program are you planning on doing?

Ah, the spousal visa is the "easiest" :) (Note I didn't say fastest ;)!!)

Best of luck & I hope you get your visa soon; do you speak/are you studying French?

I visited the Philippines, very briefly, a long time ago - beautiful place & wonderful people :) My daughter's amah was Filipina when we lived in HK; she (my daughter) still understands Tagalog, & speaks a bit !

IELTS is not compulsory. I'd highly recommend continuing your French studies, really important for living successfully in most parts of Qc!

Have you already contacted OIIQ about registering as a nurse?
