We're teaming up with Centennial College to help international students navigate their school and work journeys

Together, we'll provide trusted immigration services and support pathways to post-graduation employment

明德学院 and BorderPass are teaming up to give current international students at the College access to trusted immigration lawyers and legal services via our online platform starting this fall.

This gives international students a go-to resource for affordable, transparent, and realistic guidance on immigration—safeguarding against bad actors charging unfair fees and making false promises, and further expanding student support services at the College.

"Our partnership with BorderPass will help minimize the stresses and strains international students experience when preparing for and transitioning to study here with us in Canada and beyond," said Dr. Craig Stephenson, President and CEO of Centennial College

"We have a duty and a desire to ensure that each international student we invite to study on our campuses has the services and support they need to succeed," said Dr. Craig Stephenson, President and CEO of Centennial College. "Our partnership with BorderPass will help minimize the stresses and strains international students experience when preparing for and transitioning to study here with us in Canada and beyond. Smoothing the path to post-graduation employment and permanent residency, for those who wish to pursue it, is just one more way Centennial is demonstrating its devotion to all things student—a key institutional goal."

Supporting students through their entire journey

BorderPass supports students through their entire immigration journey, offering long-term guidance for permanent residency in Canada. Services include:

• Continuous monitoring and management of and immigration documentation with notification of key dates
• A relationship with Canadian immigration lawyers and access to professional legal immigration experts, including group workshops, one-on-one consultations, and email/chat support with prompt response times
• Ongoing tracking and management to ensure compliance, providing students with visibility, guidance and tips on their permanent residency pathways
• Additional services such as social insurance number registration and more

"BorderPass was built to help people from around the world with aspirations of studying and working in Canada, as well as the governments and institutions that play such a vital role in their journey," said Josh Green, BorderPass Co-Founder

Creating pathways to fill labour market gaps

By mapping out realistic pathways for students interested in staying in the country and working after their studies, BorderPass can help improve outcomes at a time when Canada needs to attract and retain international talent to address gaps in the labour market—and can help align those gaps to the appropriate study programs.

"Canada is ranked as one of the top study destinations in the world for international students due to its world-class education system, diverse multiculturalism, and job opportunities," said Josh Green, BorderPass Co-Founder. "However, the traditional immigration journey is manual, fragmented, and rife with fraud, which unfavourably affects students, learning institutions, and Canada's reputation and economy. BorderPass was built to help people from around the world with aspirations of studying and working in Canada, as well as the governments and institutions that play such a vital role in their journey."
