Canadian University of Bangladesh organises a discussion on facilitating student migration from Bangladesh to Canada through Student Partnership Programme (SPP).

The Canadian University of Bangladesh has organised a discussion on facilitating student migration from Bangladesh to Canada through Student Partnership Programme (SPP).

The discussion was held recently in Toronto of Canada and organised by the CUB Founder and Chairman Dr Chowdhury Nafeez Sarafat.

High Commissioner of Canada in Bangladesh, Benoit Préfontaine, and High Commissioner of Bangladesh to Canada Mizanur Rahman graced the event as the chief guest and the guest of honour respectively.

High level diplomats, eminent businessmen and key stakeholders also participated in the discussion focusing on SPP, an arrangement that provides quick and easy visa for studying in Canada.

Canadian High Commission had previously entered into SPP arrangements with India and China which facilitated many students from these two countries to migrate to Canada for higher studies.

A large number of Bangladeshi students apply for studying in Canada each year but a significant number of these applications get declined as students are unable to meet the eligibility criteria.

Once implemented, the proposed SPP between Bangladesh and Canada will result in faster visa processing, less documentation, streamlined admission and visa guidelines for all SPP participating institutions.
