October 2nd, CUD Red Theatre: Mr. Liaquat A. Shakoori, President of North American College of Information Technology and President of Global Channels Inc., a leading organization in the field of workforce development, addressed our students on a number of important topics relating to international students studying and working in Canada.
Mr. Shakoori has 25 years’ experience in the field of business and accounting and has trained over 2,500 professionals. During his presentation, he explained that those who travel to Canada in search of study and work opportunities can sometimes end up working in jobs for which they lack the necessary qualifications. The paradox occurs when employers require employees to possess a certain level of experience but do not provide employees with adequate work experience opportunities to acquire the skills they need.
To address this problem, Global Channels has offered international students the opportunity to acquire Canadian Experience Reference Building (CERB) skills, which helped guide their career paths more efficiently and avoid having to work in low level jobs regardless of their qualifications.
Mr. Shakoori concluded by thanking the audience and reminded them that Canada is not as far away as they think. Students working and studying there are allowed a great deal of social support. Finishing your degree in Canada can help open a huge number of opportunities for career improvement.
