3 Barometer Rising Attractiveness of Study Destinations year on year - Traditional Markets

4 Why the Canada Course for Education Agents? Launched in October 2012 at ICEF Berlin Workshop, the Canada Course was created to support educational agencies in providing the best possible advice to international students planning to study abroad in Canada. Goals: Contribute to the professionalism of Canada-focused agents by equipping them with up to date information about studying in Canada Ensure that students choosing an agent have access to informed, ethical professionals who have the most current and accurate information on Canadian education institutions and programmes Support Canadian educational institutions spend less time training agencies on Canada and more on institution s programmes; work with agencies that invest in best practices and are committed to Canada; and, use internally for training staff.

5 Canada Course Content Introduction Section A: About Canada Section B: Canada s Systems of Education Section C: Elementary and Secondary School (K-12) Education Section D: Language Programmes Section E: Universities Section F: Colleges, Cégeps and Polytechnics Section G: Costs of Studying in Canada and Scholarships Section H: Applying to Work, Study and Stay in Canada Section I: Living in Canada Section J: Promoting Canada

6 Benefits of the Canada Course Know why Canada is one of the top study destinations in the world Acquire comprehensive knowledge of the study options and credentials available in Canada in all areas of education Get tips about how to best prepare for living and studying in Canada Demonstrate Canada knowledge and commitment to students and parents as well as to Canadian education institutions

7 A few agent comments The course provided me with a lot of knowledge about Canada, including its education system and different associations. It complemented my job perfectly and gave me more confidence. I know that now I am providing the highest quality service to students interested in Canada. I thoroughly recommend this course to other agents. Natalia Gutierrez, Estudia y Viaja, Spain I loved participating in this course. We are sending students to Canada and the new knowledge has been incredibly useful during the preparations. Katherine d Arbeloff, Daher Turismo, Brazil I took advantage of the course to gain a deeper understanding of the differences in the Canadian school system. Even with many years of experience with Canadian schools, this course was a valuable tool for my professional development. Francoise Dallaire, Dallaire Schüler- und Kulturaustausch Agency, Germany

8 CCEA Practical Information Delivered online in a self-paced, modular format (50 hrs of study are recommended) Studying the course is free of charge, formal exam costs CAD 350 (this includes three examination attempts) Worldwide testing at all ICEF Workshops, plus online at any time Test format: 42 multiple choice questions in 80 minutes Candidates with a minimum of 80% correct answers pass the test Highly recommended to do (and pass!) the Self-Assessment before requesting a testing opportunity Candidates successfully passing the exam will obtain the status of Canada Course Graduate (CCG)* *Completion of the exam after taking the course does not provide authorization, endorsement or accreditation by the Government of Canada.
