Start Your Studies in Canada

CIRA understands that packing up and leaving your hometown to come study in Canada is very difficult. This is why we provide a wide variety of services to students that are planning on studying in Canada. Our support staff has developed a student guide for international students who wish to learn more about Vancouver and what it’s like to study in Vancouver.

At CIRA College, diversity is something that we are very proud of. We do not use special formulas to select students. We host students from all over the world with students ranging in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Chile, Mexico, Indonesia, Vietnam, and South Korea. Building an exceptional learning environment and friendly staff is key to a good workplace environment.
