In Canada each province is responsible for its own education systems. In general, there are three levels of education systems in Canada: (i) Kindergarten to Grade 8; (ii) Grade 9 to Grade 12; and (iii) Post-Secondary education. Kindergarten may further be divided into Junior<\/strong> and Senior <\/strong>Kindergarten for four and five years old children, respectively<\/strong>.<\/p>\nGrade 9 to 12 students are enroll<\/strong>ed in a secondary school system, which is similar to a high school system in the U.S.A. Some cities and towns may have a junior high school system, which accommodate<\/strong>s children from Grade 7 to Grade 9. In the Province of Ontario there is Grade 13, which is a required step for all students who want to attend a degree-grant<\/strong>ing university. This feature has been unique for Ontario, but the Province has decided to abolish <\/strong>it in order to be consistent <\/strong>with other provinces’ secondary education systems. By Year 2003, when Grade 13 is completely abandon<\/strong>ed, the number of students entering a university or college is expected to be almost double (called “double cohort<\/strong>“).<\/p>\nPost-secondary education system in Canada includes universities, community college<\/strong>s, university colleges, and other private institutions providing post-secondary education, such as skill training and continuing education.<\/p>\nA university is a standing-alone, degree-granting institution that offers certificates, diplomas, and Bachelor<\/strong>\/Master\/Ph.D. degrees. There are about 50 universities throughout the country, most of which are publicly <\/strong>fund<\/strong>ed institutions. Some of the most recognize<\/strong>d universities include the University of Toronto, McGill University, the University of British Columbia, and Queen’s University.<\/p>\nA community college offers a variety of programs for students who want to learn technical skills, skills that they can apply <\/strong>to the real world quickly. These programs are usually one or two years in length emphasizing hand-on<\/strong> experience in classroom setting<\/strong>. It grants certificate<\/strong>s and diplomas and offers a variety of training courses for people who want to upgrade themselves with the current markets and new technologies.<\/p>\nA university college, as the name implies<\/strong>, is somewhat in between a community college and a university. This type of institution is common in British Columbia, the most western province in Canada.<\/p>\nIt grants certificates and diplomas by itself. However, it is not able to grant university degrees alone, although it often offers all the courses required for a university degree. The curriculum <\/strong>for a degree program is usually designed in conjunction with<\/strong> a university, which actually grants degrees to the university college students.<\/p>\n
