This query is regarding Letter of Reference for Admission.
In my Case, I have 8 years of Professional experience as Software Engineer, and it would be difficult to provide reference letter from Academic/University Professors because at this time they may not evaluate my current skill set and professional experience, and few of my professors of them already moved.
In my scenario, may I provide my Supervisor or Senior Employee's Reference letter from my Current Company (Where I am working from last 7 years). They can better evaluate my research/professional skills.
As per UoR website: Choose referees who know your skills and experience, and can communicate your ability to succeed as a graduate student. I believe it make more sense to share Letter of Reference from my Colleagues or Seniors, right ?
But question here is, Is the Letter of Reference can only be provided by University Professors or we could go ahead for employees refers as per Regina University ?
