With all of the changes going on right now - from school placement to visa application processes, choosing the best institution becomes a little more challenging. So we decided to make things easier for our future Fil-Global members by showcasing the best performing colleges and universities in terms of quality education and graduate employability. This month, we will be featuring one particular school located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada - The Toronto School of Management (TSoM). Brace up as we take a closer look at its features, highlighted programs, feedback, and experiences from their very own students.
Before we even start discussing about TSoM, it’s very important to check whether the school has gained approval from a territorial/provincial government to host international students. If you have read through our previous post, IRCC has released a list of Designated Learning Institutions (DLIs) with an approved COVID-19 readiness plan. Learning institutions included in the list may now start issuing acceptance letters to applicants and move through the study permit application.
Fortunately, the school has already formulated its own response committee to assist in a safe re-opening (last September) which consists of blended learning. Check out the video below and see how safety precautions are set in place:
About TSoM
The school operates in a five-story building packed with classrooms and learning facilities such as laboratories, a cafe, a student lounge, and an auditorium. The programs and curriculums are molded based on the dynamic market, making sure that students are on top of their careers. Since TSoM believes in the significance of real-life work experience, it has partnered with various industries to help students acquire knowledge and skills through diverse learning methods. When enrolled under the school’s various programs, you can expect a dedicated period for paid experiential learning for students to enjoy both in the financial and educational aspects.
