Thousands of people immigrate to Canada every year. Jasbir Rai is one of the Indian immigrants who traveled all the way to Canada in search of a brighter future. In India, he was a family physician for 17 years and a nursing instructor for two years. However, Rai's years of experience with the Indian medical scenarios were not sufficient to enter into the Canadian medical sector. Rai discovered Stenberg College, where 98 percent of Stenberg graduates find employment in their field of study within six months of program completion.

Stenberg College focuses on preparing its students to begin a fruitful career immediately after program completion. Their staff is committed to directing students
