Student Testimonials
After completing my diploma in Business Intelligence & Visualization Analyst at Montreal College, I was able to land my first job at Bell Canada, where I am currently working with the Intelligence & Analytics team.
Did you know that things I learnt at Montreal College allowed me to secure my current position? Trust me, the questions they asked were the same that had been ingrained to us in the course. It cannot get any better!
I am an international student from Kuwait. I choose Montreal College over University education after careful evaluation. The fact that Montreal College offers hands-on and career oriented training specializing in Information technology impressed me the most. The other important factor that tilted my decision in favor of joining Montreal College is that the program is recognized the Ministry of Education, Canada. This means that the diploma offered by the college is recognized by employers across the Middle East. I am happy to share with you that I have found a high paying job and I am head back to Kuwait. For those of you interested in staying back in Canada, the program meets the immigration processing requirements as well. Above all, the college management is warm and welcoming and made me feel at home.
I am an engineering graduate from Morocco who came to Canada in order to help expand my career. I came upon MCIT as the best choice for intensive and practical courses, which opened up my career to far more opportunities than I thought were possible.
