High Quality of Living Sees Auckland New Zealand As A City Offering Excellent International Appeal


The city of Auckland in New Zealand offers a lot more than meets the eye. From its many beautiful beaches and breathtaking scenery, to idyllic holiday islands and fantastic food and wine, Auckland has plenty to offer people of all ages and interests.

 This metropolitan city has a population nearing 1.5 million people, which is just over 30% of New Zealand's total population. According to demographic trends, Auckland's population will continue to grow at a faster rate than any of NZ's other major city centres.
In 2010, Auckland was placed an impressive 4th on the Mercer Quality of Living Survey. The same year, it was ranked 10th on the Economist's World's Most Liveable Cities.

Auckland New Zealand is rather unique in that it has two major harbours on two separate major bodies of water. These are Manukau Harbour to the south of Auckland on the Tasman Sea and the Waitemata harbour, which lies north of Auckland on the Pacific Ocean.

The warmest of New Zealand's main city centres, Auckland is the home to many nationalities, but mostly British Europeans, Maori, Pacific Islanders and Asians. There are more Polynesians in Auckland than there are anywhere in the world. Approximately 250,000 Asian people live in the greater Auckland region. It is by far the most cosmopolitan city in New Zealand.

Those that live in Auckland New Zealand, are attracted to the city's mild climate, the various leisure activities available and the excellent employment and educational opportunities.

Auckland's vast harbour surrounds and its resident's love affair with yachting has earned it the nickname "City of Sails". It has more yachts per capita than any other city in the world. There are over 135,000 yachts and launches in Auckland and around 61,000 of the country's 149,000 registered yachtsmen are based in the Auckland region. Around one in every 3rd person in the greater Auckland region owns a boat.

With such high quality of living, Auckland is the ideal place to head for a holiday, live permanently or study. Many Asian students head to Auckland New Zealand to learn English as a second language. It offers a lively, multicultural atmosphere with fabulous inner city suburbs that provide plenty for everyone to do. From its boutique shops and large shopping complexes, to its famous weekend markets and huge range of outdoor activities, no matter what your interests are, you can be sure you'll find everything you need in Auckland.

Government of Gujarat and Canada’s Seneca College sign agreement to provide global learning opportunities

Toronto, January 10, 2013 – The Government of Gujarat and Canada's Seneca College have signed a Letter of Cooperation that will accelerate the internationalization of higher education in the state and provide new global learning opportunities for Gujarat's young people.

The Letter was signed at the International Conference of Academic Institutions taking place at Pandit Deendayal Petroleum University in Gandhinagar by Mr. N.N. Bhuptani, Deputy Director, Commissionerate of Technical Education and Mr. David Agnew, President of Seneca College. The signing took place in the presence of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, a strong proponent of internationalization of education. 
"We are delighted to strengthen our relationship with the Government and academic institutions of Gujarat," said Mr. Agnew. "This is a State that has shown tremendous commitment to higher education, and we look forward to working together to promote student exchange, faculty exchange, joint research projects and curriculum development."

The government and Seneca will also work together to create a Higher Education Forum that will support access, achievement and equity goals for Gujarati students, including through the use of online resources. 

Gujarat is one of India's most industrialized states and Ahmedabad, where the Conference is being held, is the third fastest growing city in the world. The state has seen rapid economic and social development in the past few years, including significant expansion of the higher education sector.

With campuses across the Greater Toronto Area, Seneca offers degrees, diplomas and certificates renowned for their quality and respected by employers. Combining the highest academic standards with practical, hands-on learning, expert teaching faculty and the latest technology ensures Seneca graduates are career-ready.

News Release — New Federal Skilled Trades Program Accepts Applications



Ottawa, January 2, 2013 —
The brand-new Federal Skilled Trades Program begins accepting applications , announced Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney.
“The new Skilled Trades Program will address serious labour shortages that some regions of the country are facing, and will help grow Canada’s economy,” said Minister Kenney. “These long-overdue changes are part of the government’s plan to build a fast and flexible immigration system that is responsive to the needs of Canada’s economy. Canadian employers have long been asking for ways to get the skilled tradespeople they need to meet demands in many industries across the country. We’ve listened to their concerns and created this program in response.”
In the program’s first year, CIC will accept applications from up to 3,000 people in specific trades. The occupation list was designed to reflect current labour market needs and ensure the program delivers a diverse range of skilled tradespeople to fuel Canada’s economy. Within the 3,000, there will be no limit on 26 in-demand occupations, while 17 occupations will be subject to sub-limits of 100 applications each. In total, there are 43 occupations eligible for the Federal Skilled Trades Program. Applications are expected to be processed within 12 months.
In addition to being qualified for an eligible occupation, Federal Skilled Trades Program applicants must demonstrate basic language proficiency in either English or French at the Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) level 5 for speaking and listening, and CLB 4 for reading and writing. This is due to the overall importance of language as a determinant of immigrant success and general health and safety reasons. CLB 4 is considered basic proficiency while those with CLB 5 can more effectively participate in and understand routine conversations.
Other criteria include: a valid offer of employment in Canada or a certificate of qualification from a province or territory in a qualifying skilled trade; at least two years of work experience in the occupation within the last five years; and meeting the employment requirements set out in the National Occupational Classification system, with the exception of licensing requirements, which are addressed separately.
“The Federal Skilled Trades Program is yet another tool in the Canadian employer’s toolkit to find the workers they need to build Canada’s future economy,” said Minister Kenney. “This new program, along with all other changes we are introducing, will help us move towards an immigration system that better supports Canada’s economic growth and long-term prosperity.”
Application forms for the Federal Skilled Trades Program can be found on the CIC website.
