Hello friends,
My name is Rizwan. I have a finance background. I have done MBA in finance in 2011.

But I leaved my second finance degree due to the job uncertainty and my lack of interest too. As i have heard for now due to this covid 19 pandemic, the Canadian government needs laboratory technicians to support them in their future operations so if i enroll for a diploma in laboratory technician for two years will they allow me to change my career and provide me the study permit?

Please reply soon.

You will most likely struggle to get a study permit approved if you make this drastic a change. A diploma is a much much lower level of study than an MBA and has nothing to do with your past work experience. You'll need to explain why you are making this change.

To be approved for a study permit you must demonstrate you have strong ties to your home country and have no plans on remaining in Canada long term. So saying that your reasons for taking this course of study is to remain in Canada won't be a good answer.

You want to leave the highly lucrative finance field for a lab technician position? Looks very suspicious from the outside.
