British Columbia is one of the aggressive provinces of Canada in terms of declaring the draws. The pace of the provincial nominee programs has also not stopped during the Wuhan virus pandemic situation. Moreover, from 14 March 2022, the province has shifted its focus on the occupations like childcare, early childhood educators, and healthcare assistants, which also is one significant sign.
Based on the analysis, especially students who belong to healthcare and childcare-related studies and would like to pursue their studies in Canada should move to the BCPNP for permanent settlement in Canada.
