Hi
I'm going to apply for some diploma studies. I checked one of the colleges( teccart) website it gave me option of these level courses.
Could someone please elaborate what's the difference and does it really matter if I choose e one over the other?
Any response would be much appropriated!

Does it make any difference if I choose one over the other as an international student.
And won't it create any problem after completing one of these and applying for post graduate work permit?
Just google it. AEC is from CÉGEP and DVS/DEC is a diploma.

And won't it create any problem after completing one of these and applying for post graduate work permit?

Of course it will make a difference if you have post secondary. Why would you do AEC if you have post secondary.

So which one should I choose?
So it means by doing ACE level course I won't fulfill the requirements of applying pgwp after studies?

Didn’t say that but if you have post secondary why would you take AEC. Look up your school and see if it is on the DLI and whether you get a PGWP by attending there. Assume you have an approved CAQ that you need before applying for a study permit.

It's teccart college.
I have no idea about Canadian education system. I'm sure teccart college is public and on DLI

Teccart is a private technical college, not public. Good luck with getting study permit with this college.
You may be eligible for PGWP after completing your program, as long as you complete 900 hours or more.

There may other Criteria you need to fulfil to quality for PGWP. Check on the CIC website.

I heard most private colleges are not acceptable from the government.
I'm not sure if studying from private college will make me eligible to apply for pgwp later! What do you recommend

Check for colleges/universities here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/study-permit/prepare/designated-learning-institutions-list.html

that site will tell you if the school, even if a DLI, is qualified for PGWP. Quebec has a different policy: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/study-permit/prepare/designated-learning-institutions-list/quebec.html

You need to get a study permit, go to Canada, complete the program according to the laid down policy, then get PGWP.

The first step - get a SP - is your biggest challenge right now. Attending a private college will reduce your chances of approval. It's not impossible but your chances are greatly reduced.

My recommendation is to go for a public university. Next best thing is a public college.
