Is it worthwhile to upgrade qualifications?
The answer to that question is “yes”!
In Canada, you will often hear the phrase “lifelong learning”. It means that many adults continue to take courses and upgrade their skills throughout their lifetime. When you upgrade your skills, you increase your opportunities to find work.
In addition to taking English classes, you may choose to return to college or university studies, either full-time, or part-time while you work.
There are many “continuing education” programs where you can take a series of courses and earn a certificate, or just take one or two courses to improve your skills in computers, for example:
- Fanshawe College – www.fanshawec.ca
- The University of Western Ontario – www.uwo.ca
