2.After completion of that diploma can I apply for Live-in-caregiver position sitting in Canada? If not then what will I do to apply as Live-in-caregiver position.
Await for feedback soonest.
Thanks in advance
I dont know how long you can stay after completing your diploma. I think your diploma will be accepted for you to be able to apply under live in caregiver program as it is health related.
Here is a quote from the manual:
Live-in caregiver training should be similar to the training offered by Canadian community colleges in child care or other related fields. The course load at Canadian community colleges averages 25 to 30 hours per week. This does not include activity assignments or a practicum. Thus, a student in an educational institution offering live-in caregiver training should be attending classes at least 25 to 30 hours per week.
It is acceptable to have some on-the-job training throughout the course as long as the classroom schedule demonstrates that there is a requirement for, and completion of, a full 6 months of full-time training in a classroom setting throughout that course.
There is no specific list of courses required by CIC, as CIC is not an education-regulating body. However, visa offices can assess the legitimacy, quality, adequacy and relevance of the training programs offered in their regions, including whether the hours of classroom training are sufficient. Officers may undertake research concerning the legitimacy of a given training program and/or educational institution, including if the institution is located in another country. In such cases, officers should request assistance from the visa office in the country where the educational institution is situated to verify the legitimacy of the institution and the substance of the training.
