Hi all,

While some are planning their last mile, I wanted to understand what are the most sought after certifications in Canada, typically for a managerial role.

I know some might reply with"depends on the industry / vertical you are targeting" or reply "it's the survival job that should be thought of". Well my argument to this is:
I am looking out for certifications for any managerial role, as before migrating the stress is less and it's cheaper here.

Pls share your suggestions.

For the most part, you already have answers to some critical questions. It is good if you already have Master's in business or healthcare to get some value, but better to study in Canada and get some certifications. We all know that Canadian employers do not really give value to education and work experience outside canada. So, from my view point, it would be waste of money and time if you want to study before coming. But yes, if you can take some course online probably in some canadian institute, that might be considered - but no guarnatee :D. The best way is, come to Canada, take whatever job you find to survive for at least a year and along with that start taking some certifications.

Yes, these are certainly recognized in manufacturing particularly. SAP is also a valuable and universally recognized credential.
