Pls house, I saw an old 2017 post on how to obtain a driver abstract here I.e sending an email to Abuja. Pls is it still the right way and are there payments for it? Thanks for your response |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by miolad20(m): 2:10am On May 05, 2022 |
DL abstract from FRSC in Abuja is free, only that you'd need to find someone there to help you send it via courier (not free). A second option is through the Nigeria High Commission in Ottawa (https://nigeriahcottawa.ca/drivers-license-letter/) - which is also not free. Be sure that the letter is acceptable in your province before going through the stress anyways. I know it works in Ontario, not sure of the other provinces/territories. I made a video on this on my YT channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQRoNxfMGYg Blessedme4: 7 Likes 1 Share |

I don't know if FRSC issues the letter in Lagos. I guess it depends on who is helping you with it there (civil service). I believe someone shared contact in some pages back. icehot: |

Guys, I'm in a serious deliemma and I need urgent help. I studied Agricultural Economics, Extension and Rural Development in my undergraduate level. Now I would like to go for a Masters in Data Analytics or Business Analytics. In Canada. But the problem is that I don't meet the entry requirements for most schools in Canada. Some schools in the USA offer foundational courses for people who are coming from other fields but I'm yet to see such for a Canadian school. I'm also processing my express entry so my thinking is that if I should get EE, it will not only reduce my tuition, it will also make my life easier. Now, my question is, considering my limitations, should I apply for a diploma in Data Analytics with co-op? And then do a apply for a Masters when I'm there. Is this even possible? Is it a waste of money?? Please I need advice |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by icehot: 10:45am On May 06, 2022 |
Juicy7: You can hold your dollar and change it when you get to Canada airport or any bureau de change near you in Canada. |

Kbrule: If I were you, I'll start with the question: do you want to educate yourself or do you just want a job? If all you want is a job, then you may not need a masters. It may take a while, but you'll get a job. You just need to be persistent. You could start firstly with networking on LinkedIn, so that you are more visible to recruiters when they search. Then you may want to focus on certifications like the CBAP, if business analytics is more what you are interested in. Then go hard with looking for a job by submitting hundreds of applications. There are a lot of openings for business analytics and even more on data analyst roles. It may take a while, but you will eventually get a job, provided you get those certifications and you are good at data analysis. You could also search for preliminary certifications issued by Microsoft and IBM, etc. in data analysis. These will bolster your applications and may help you secure a job. I say this because you shouldn't expect to find studying in Canada easy. It is often much more difficult than Nigerian students anticipate. Most Nigerian students are not equipped well enough in Nigeria to study abroad. It can often get very frustrating and tedious. You have to be sure you want to do this, so that when you finish you don't feel like it was a waste of time and effort. If you are convinced and you really want to educate yourself, then you could consider going back to school. Starting with a certificate could be a good thing and you could put that on your CV while applying for a masters degree. Many of the universities offer these kinds of co-op or certificate programs which you can apply for and easily get into. These are however not as difficult as the masters program. It may be easier to get into a business analytics masters than it is to get into a data science masters. The latter is more competitive. You may also just consider masters in computer science or statistics which cover pretty much the same syllabus, though on a more fundamental level. If you have PR, it won't be a waste of money as you'll be paying a fraction of international student cost. And in some schools like University of Calgary, I think, getting the diploma in data science may improve your chances of getting admitted into their masters program. There are a few schools like that. Now, you may also want to keep in mind that while having a masters degree may improve your chances of getting a job, it doesn't automatically guarantee you a job. In fact, you may be surprised that some of your friends who don't do the masters end up with good or better jobs. You just have to ask yourself why you are taking the masters in the first place. One thing the masters may fetch you is more interviews. But you still need to be very good at data analysis tools e.g. SQL, because the interviews will test you on this. 14 Likes 2 Shares |
