Andres from Colombia

testimonial • January 22, 2021

"Studying in Canada was a very rewarding experience for me because I was not only able to study in a new country, but I was also able to form long-lasting relationships with people from around the world. As an active member in the student community, I grew close with my fellow exchange students. I also joined the Recreation Centre staff, which further enriched my experience as a student.

Currently, I work in the department of internationalization for a local government training institution called Servicio Nacional de Aprendizaje (SENA). In November of 2020, I took part in the ELAP Collaboration Mission on behalf of SENA. At the conference, I was able to connect with Canadian institutions and further explore education opportunities for Colombians abroad.

I highly recommend pursuing international studies and research in Canada through the ELAP Program to my fellow Latin American students. It is a life-changing experience!"
