“Mature Student Status” or “Mature Student Assessment”
Mature student status may be granted to applicants who are over 19 years old and do not have a high school diploma or GED. It is intended to allow applicants who have not completed high school the opportunity to be considered for admission based on the skills and experience they have acquired since leaving school.

If a prospective student does not have a grade 12 education certificate which is equivalent to a Canadian secondary school certificate due to any reason, the college will still consider the student for admission to its programs if the student passes a qualifying test that has been approved by the Superintendent (The Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities Ontario).

Consider there are thousands of applicants who are applying for the following jobs, and they have a graduate degree with no other education or experience related to the job's skill set.

Citizenship–Immigration and Enforcement Officers:
The citizenship and immigration officer would be responsible for determining the eligibility of individuals from foreign countries to reside or travel in a host country. For example, as a Canadian citizenship and immigration officer, you would be responsible for screening visitors in various temp visa categories as well as a permanent residency in Canada.

In order to determine a potential immigrant or visitor’s eligibility, they would examine applications for immigration, citizenship and visas, and conduct interviews with the applicants. They would be ultimately trying to determine the applicant’s suitability (including whether they currently have any outstanding criminal charges) for entering the country on a temporary basis, or staying in the country on a permanent basis. They are usually hired by the government for a permanent or contract-based position and may work to perform the following:

Review permanent residence, study or work permits, and visitor extension applications
Detect potential security threats and fraud attempts by interviewing those trying to enter the country
Approve or reject permanent residence, study or work permits, and visitor extension applications
Provide counsel and advice to individuals who wish to remain in the host country
Interpret relevant laws and explain decisions to people seeking admission or entry to the host country
Detain those who are trying to enter the country illegally
Determine the re-eligibility of people claiming refugee status

A few important scenarios for your consideration:

If you are already an immigration consultant and licensed, you can register for this program and C.C.E.C. may allow some credits toward some courses taken from C.C.E.C. or other designated similar program providers, helping you not only save on tuition fees but also time.

Those who qualify for subject credits may complete this program sooner and carry two diplomas with two skill sets: one for work as an Immigration Consultant, and the other for work in Citizenship and Immigration Case Processing and Enforcement Services with an option to work for the government in Canada or overseas.

If you are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada who would like to work abroad for the Canadian government directly or indirectly, this program may help you to learn the required skill set for a suitable job.

Foreign Nationals

For international visitors or temporary residents in Canada, this program does not require a study visa or study permit because it is less than a six-month study period and, as per IRCC regulations/policy, does not require a study permit or visa.

If you are currently in Canada either visiting or on a temporary resident permit status; or under a bridging open work permit program waiting for a final decision on your PR application; or you have already submitted your PR application and are waiting for a final decision; you may take this course to learn the advanced-level skills, and once you have PR status, start your career matching this program without wasting time, ready to play your part in the Canadian economy.

Regulatory Licensing and Binding

Moreover, for the Citizenship and Immigration Case Processing and Enforcement Services Diploma, once you complete the program, you don’t have to pass any other exam from any regulatory body. No more yearly licensing fees, CPDs, PMEs, record-keeping or audit, liability insurance, or finding and dealing with clients or maintaining an office.

If you take this course, you may decide to choose to be a part of a decision making or decision seeking process (i.e. being an Immigration Consultant) if you already are, or are going to be, an officer.

Acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to perform as an entry-level citizenship, immigration and enforcement officer at the federal or provincial level. Consider the roles and responsibilities of the immigration decision-making process and immigration enforcement officers, and examine and apply legislation, policy and procedures.
