PGWP CHANGES 2024: HOW IELTS PREPARATION COURSES DRIVE TESTING CANDIDATES’ SUCCESS

Millions of people worldwide enroll in IELTS preparation courses every year. They want to improve their chances of a better academic and professional future. Mentioned below are the reasons for your reference:

• A robust Canadian economy.
• Better quality of lifestyle.

These two points put Canada in the league of the top international destinations for academic and professional opportunities. Most come to this part of the world for work.

Things are changing fast on the international political and economic front. All these economic and political changes in the world are encouraging the Canadian government to adjust its policies regarding the following:

• Immigration requirements.
• Language proficiency requirements.

The Federal Government of Canada has introduced some changes in its immigration and language proficiency requirements. These changes will affect your chances of getting a post-graduate work permit in Canada.

Those who are planning to enroll in the IELTS preparation course must know about these changes.

Language Proficiency Requirements

This is the first thing you need to know about. The Federal Government of Canada has firmed its stance about it through the following announcements:

• These changes will come into effect from 1November 2024.
• PGWP applicants will have to abide by all these new regulations.
• CLB—Canadian Language Benchmark—level 7 is mandatory for university graduates.
• CLB level 5 is mandatory for college graduates.

There is another major change in PGWP for international students. Understand this change before you begin your IELTS training journey. It will save you time and money.

The Federal Government of Canada has tied the PGWP issuance for college graduates to their domain of study. As a result, you will be eligible for a 3-year PGWP if you fulfill the following eligibility criteria:

• If you are a graduate of a public college.
• If the programs of your public college align with high-demand labour sectors.

Other college graduates will not be considered qualified for the same PSWBs—Post Study Work Benefits.

You must know about CLB levels mandated through this new directive. The Canadian Language Benchmark Level 7 refers to the IELTS Score of 6 bands each. You will need at least 6 IELTS bands in each skill—i.e. listening, reading, writing, and speaking.

The Canadian Language Benchmark refers to the IELTS Score of 5 bands. You will need at least 5 bands each in every IELTS test module.

What Exactly is PGWP?

All test takers doing their IELTS training value the concept of PGWP. It allows students to participate. Students can enroll in any participating Canadian post-secondary institution.

It helps students gain invaluable professional experience they will need to climb the growth ladder in their careers.

The work you obtain through PGWP can open the door of opportunity for you to become a permanent Canadian citizen.

Thousands of international graduates use PGWP to qualify for immigration programs and be employed in Canada. However, updates in language proficiency requirements and stricter eligibility criteria have made IELTS training even more important.

Those who earn PGWP can earn enough points to be eligible for PR [Permanent Residency] through CRS [Comprehensive Ranking System]. The Federal Government of Canada uses CRS to evaluate the following factors:

• Language proficiency.
• Work experience.
• Education.

Other immigration programs are also evolving. This evolution is also adding to the value of IELTS exam coaching for all test takers. The Temporary Foreign Workers Program is an example of this. It is being revised to manage the influx of the following:

• Foreign students.
• Workers’ influx.

The Federal Government of Canada is introducing the Immigration Levels Plan for 2025-2027 to better control the influx of the following:

• Temporary immigration.
• Permanent immigration.

This plan is dedicated to reducing the overall count of international students and foreign workers. These changes perfectly align with the following new policies:

• Capping study permits.
• Restricting spousal work permits to particular sectors.

The aim is to reduce the intake of temporary residents over the next couple of years.

How IELTS Exam Coaching Can Help You Gain Employment in Canada

The IELTS exam is important to secure immigration eligibility. Even the result of this English language proficiency exam also plays an important role in it.

You must meet the requirements for CLB [Canadian Language Benchmark] levels. Recent changes to the following can be credited to it:

• Immigration policies for PGWP.
• Language proficiency requirements for PGWP.

Again, university graduates require CLB 7, whereas college graduates need CLB 5.

This English language proficiency test evaluates your ability to use English in real-world situations. The IELTS exam coaching helps you get ready to use the language effectively to thrive in the following settings:

• Professional settings.
• Everyday life.

Mentioned below is the way the IELTS test can help you climb the growth and success ladder:

Improved Professional Communication:

The IELTS test evaluates several skills. The list includes but is not limited only to the following:

• Writing a report.
• Correct understanding of all professional documents.
• Speaking with confidence during the interview.

Learning relevant skills advances your career and makes you competitive in the Canadian job market. IELTS exam coaching classes can help you learn and polish all sorts of professional communication skills through dedicated material, infrastructure, resources, and sessions.

Hassle-Free Integration into Canadian Society

The IELTS test can prepare test takers for life in Canada. Candidates must value IELTS enrolment in an IELTS prep course near your residence for it. It will help candidates learn about the following:

• The art of navigating public services in Canada.
• The process of building a network in Canada.
• Effective communication skills.
• The way you can integrate into the Canadian environment.

Attending an IELTS prep course can make all this possible for you.

Takes Your Career to The Next Level

• Immigration requirements are fulfilled without hassles.

IELTS TEST—CANADA ENDS SDS AND NSE PROGRAMS FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Many IELTS test takers consider Canada their dream destination for higher education and professional life. But things are likely to change for them soon. The federal government of Canada is changing its policies for international students and workers.

A recent couple of developments and announcements have proven it. Recent news circulating worldwide has stamped these changes. Therefore, everyone planning to register for the IELTS test for study purposes in Canada needs to know these policy changes.

Today’s post will detail those changes.

SDS And NSE Categories Closed

8 November 2024 proved to be a big day for all planning to apply for study visas through the SDS [Student Direct Stream] and NSE [Nigeria Student Express] categories. International students used these categories to apply for faster processing of their study visas.

The IRCC [Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada) has confirmed the closure of Student Direct Stream and Nigeria Student Express. Those who have cleared their IELTS or any other English language proficiency exam and want to apply for a speedy study visa through these categories will have to change their plans.

Their applications will not be entertained. They will have to follow all respective timelines and rules mentioned on IRCC’s official website.

For Which Countries Were These Programs Introduced?

The Federal Government of Canada introduced the Students Direct Stream Program in 2018. The purpose was to help students from the following countries apply for their study permits with a quicker processing time. It was introduced to the students of the following 14 countries:

• Vietnam.
• Trinidad & Tobago.
• Antigua And Barbuda.
• St. Vincent And the Grenadines.
• Brazil.
• Senegal.
• China.
• The Philippines.
• Columbia.
• Peru.
• India.
• Pakistan.
• Morocco.
• Costa Rica.

All students/applicants from these countries had to fulfil only three conditions mentioned below:

• To be on an eligible countries’ list.
• Reside in the country.

Similarly, the NSE was for Nigerian students. The program allowed students from this country an expedited study permit process.

The Federal Government of Canada has decided to end both programs. This is because the Canadian government wants to provide every international student with the same study permit-related opportunity. The opportunity will be given based on the application submitted. Their country of citizenship or residence will not matter. 

What Do You Need to Understand about this Change?

There is something all international students need to know about this policy change. You need to understand it if you are planning to take the IELTS exam or any other international English language proficiency test to apply for a study permit in Canada.

International students can still apply for study permits in Canada. The closure of Student Direct Stream and Nigerian Student Express programs does not mean students from other countries can no longer come to Canada for education. They will still be allowed to enter Canada to achieve their academic dreams.

There is a difference between applying for study permits through regular study permits and SDS and NSE programs. International students from the 14 countries listed above needed to carry specific documents required to apply and fulfil the eligibility criteria for application submission under this stream.

International students needed to carry relevant documents as extra documents. The documentation depends on the country you are applying from. For such applications, the processing time for every international student will also be the same.

Do Not Worry if You Have Already Applied

The Federal Government of Canada issued Canada Gazette, Part I, Volume 158, Number 45: Government Notices on November 9th, 2024, on its official website. The directive issued is titled Department Of Citizenship And Immigration, Immigration And Refugee Protection Act, Ministerial Instructions For The Student Direct Stream Program to provide complete clarification about the status of applications submitted before 8 November 2024.

All applications submitted before 8 November 2024, 2:00 PM EST [Eastern Standard Time will be processed according to the old SDS and NSE Programs. This is because those applications are currently running.

Are You Planning to Apply?

Have patience—your application will not be processed for expedited processing time under the Old SDS and NSE program after 8 November 2024 [2:00 PM] EST if you applied or are planning to apply for a study permit.

Your application will be processed under the regular study permit stream open to all students from other countries.

What Should Be Done Now?

The closure of the SDS and NSE categories is going to affect your chances of seeking higher education in Canada for sure. Those who have already enrolled in the IELTS exam preparation course or any other international English language proficiency test preparation course must be familiar with regular study permit application requirements.

Do not worry—just be familiar with regular study permit requirements and eligibility criteria. The end of the SDS and NSE categories does not mean the end of the world for them! The country is still willing to welcome students from other countries according to its regular study permit program.

The process of obtaining a regular study permit can be taxing. All such announcements can make things more complicated. Preparing for the IELTS test or any other international English language proficiency test could become a challenge for you.

For this reason, BITTS Testing Services offers you IELTS test preparation courses. Enrol in one of those courses to better your chances of a regular study permit. Moreover, our team keeps watch on all such announcements and relevant developments to keep you updated. Candidates call BITTS Testing Services without hesitation to know more about it and the value our courses can add to your IELTS exam preparations.

A quality IELTS bootcamp proves to be a great medium for test takers to learn effective skills and strategies through access to practice materials. It helps test takers perform with confidence during the test.

Everything Test Takers Learn Through IELTS Bootcamp

Such an IELTS preparatory bootcamp allows test takers to improve the quality of their preparation through a focus on the following key aspects:

All test takers are provided access to the latest test preparation material for topic-wise preparation. The material provided increases your knowledge about various topics to help you gain confidence for the test day.

These doubts and questions are about test type, test duration, practices, strategies, test booking process, questions in test modules, and their ability. An IELTS bootcamp course clears all these doubts and questions answered online and offline by experienced tutors.

• Access To Recommended Resources– Furthermore, candidates in the bootcamp have access to recommended resources for better-quality of preparation. This adds value to your IELTS test preparations in a different way. IELTS-certified and experienced tutors tell you about authentic resources to practice IELTS tips, tricks, learnings, and strategies through mock tests.

The quality of learning you gain through the IELTS bootcamp course elevates the quality of your knowledge and skills related to grammar, listening, reading, writing and speaking section-related practice, techniques, and strategies, and takes your vocabulary, sentence structure, punctuation, and pronunciation skills to the next level.

There are a few conditions. Those who want to enroll in a reputed IELTS bootcamp class must be above 18 years of age. You have a high school diploma or equivalent degree in addition to the basic knowledge of the English language.

You get all these values once you become a certified office administrative assistant.

Employers in Canada prefer those who complete their training from industry-experienced instructors. All Canadian employers look for candidates who have completed their training in the international environment to help them manage all day-to-day office activities.

Only candidates holding a diploma in office administration courses can make it possible. Most Canadian employers are ready to pay a handsome salary to certified applicants.

FOOD SERVICE WORKER COURSE – PROPER FOOD STORAGE RULES

11,000 Canadian nationals visit hospitals every year due to food allergies, reactions, and food-borne illnesses speaks volumes about it. Every second family in Canada has a member who is allergic to a specific food.

For this reason, Canadian federal and provincial government authorities encourage employers to hire food service worker certificate holders.

These certified professionals have technical and transferable skills, effective communication skills to handle customers, knowledge of sanitation and safety practices, and skills to deal with medical emergencies under critical circumstances.

Certified food service workers understand nutrition and health and the quantity of food preparation. Another important thing they have is CPR/first aid certification. The most important thing they have is complete knowledge about the role of the food service worker certificate holders to help keep customers’ and consumers’ health safe.

Basic Food Storage Rules

The value of proper food storage is essential for several reasons including understanding…

• Protection of food freshness.
• Prevention of foodborne illnesses.
• Food health monitoring.

Regular tracking and monitoring of food items make food storage fundamentals possible.

Food Storage Basics

This is the most important thing you are taught during your food service worker online course in Canada. Some of these basics are practically understanding necessities like:

• Refrigerating raw meat, poultry, dairy, and seafood immediately.
• Discarding raw meat, poultry, dairy, and seafood kept at room temperature for over two hours.
• Discarding raw meat, poultry, dairy, and seafood stored at room temperature above 90° F for over an hour. 
• Even food distribution in the refrigerator and freezer.
• Ensuring enough space between foods distributed in the refrigerator and freezer.
• Making sure the foods distributed in the refrigerator and freezer chill quickly and stay at an even temperature.
• Always keeping raw foods, fruits, cooked veggies, and meat separate all the time.

Value Refrigeration Rules

Value Refrigeration is not a term common to most people. Furthermore, those that study it get an in-depth knowledge of key points about both food safety AND the value of keeping food stored safely. Some specific points covered are…

• Always refrigerate foods at or below 40° F (4° C).
• Maintain and monitor refrigerator temperature to prevent food spoilage.
• Install a wireless/wired temperature monitoring system for it.
• Never keep foods, fruits, frozen meat, and veggies on the countertop.
• Thaw frozen meat to ensure bacterial prevention.
• Marinate foods, fruits, and veggies to slow bacteria growth.
• Use covers or containers to prevent cross-contamination of different types of foods.
• Use real-time alerts…
  • To respond to food safety emergencies.
  • To protect inventory.
  • To save money and time on spoilage cleanup.
  • To save the cost of food inventory replacement.

Those who complete their food service worker course successfully know how to implement all these refrigerator rules successfully to ensure proper food storage.

Freezing Frozen Foods

The quality of frozen foods must be preserved in the best possible way. Focus on keeping the freezer at 0° F (-18° C) is the best solution. Freezing foods prevents bacteria growth instead of killing the bacteria. Storing frozen foods in the freezer prevents food decay for a long time. In other words, the quality and health of food items frozen in the freezer decay slows over time. Planning to take care of frozen foods during weather issues, power outages, and equipment failures prevents food decay for some extra time. The Food Service Worker Course guides you about it in the best way.

Staple Food Storage Matters

Many foods don’t need freezing or refrigeration. However, proper food storage is still mandatory to keep them in good condition. Such food items must be protected from contamination, pests, and nutrition loss. Make sure you store them properly to protect the health and taste of such food items. You can do a couple of things to ensure it. For example:

• Use sealed containers or storage bags. It will help maintain the taste and freshness of staple foods like dry goods, sugar, yeast, and salt.
• Non-perishable food items must be stored away from all chemicals and cleaning supplies.
• Prioritize the use of older stock first.
• Value learning about shipments and best use before dates of all food items you buy.
• Always discard staple baby foods and formulas once they expire.

Plan For Weather Issues, Power Outages, And Equipment Failures

This is what it is called a disciplined approach and is important to safeguard the condition of food items for a long time. Food service workers must plan for unpredictable circumstances. Keep all appliance doors closed during power outages. Whenever issues like these arise, one has to be ready and know to…

• Keep refrigerator doors closed—food can be kept safe for two hours if the temperature rises above 40 degrees.
• Try to consume food items thawing—i.e. once it thaws, find a way to cook and serve it. Don’t wait for food temperature to reach below 40° F.
• Don’t try to freeze food items thawing.
