these are the healthcare jobs that were attractive to me. don't get me wrong i'm not saying i can choose anything i wanna do and easily get a job with a certain title in this list. i know everyone is sweating out their tremendous efforts to achieve their status as 'permanent resident'.

so please help,
i highlighted some of em because i thought i should narrow down my options
i'm mostly looking for 2 year diploma course
which among them has the most prospect in all aspects (such as success rate of getting PR, how easy to get a job, so and so)

and what are some best colleges that have best healthcare programs(mainly for those bolded letter programs)?
which among those bolded titles should i aim for?

I'm sorry. you may feel that i'm asking such gratuitous questions but i'd really appreciate if you take your time answering in details. thank you guys.

First of all are you looking for FSW (Federal Skilled Worker Program) ? If yes then there is a NOC which lists out 29 Jobs categories which are eligible for a PR under FSW. That program has been temporarily suspended, next update on NOC and FSW will be in January 2013. The healthcare jobs that you have listed please see how many of those make it to the NOC list. Also the NOC list gets revised so you will have to keep a tab on that.

Now you will have to show at least 1 year on work experience in that particular job category to be eligible for FSW PR. Then I don't believe a 2 yr diploma would be enough, you should at least have Bachelors or preferably masters degree in that particular trade. After which you will send your credentials for evaluation to Canada, after which it will be determined if you need to do some extra courses in Canada or not..... if a diploma holder then possibility high that you will surely have to do some courses, if you hold Masters Degree then the possibility is less that they would ask you to take up full time courses.

Once you go through that process you can sit for a license exam for that particular trade, when you clear the exam you will get your license and then you can start looking for a job in that category.

Hope that helps
