Although global business has been an attractive career choice for young people for the past few decades, jobs that support international awareness have trended upwards more recently, providing those that adhere to language and culture study along with specialized training a variety of opportunities throughout Canada and beyond.

Here are some of the fastest growing international careers and how to get there:

Immigration Consultants:

Canada is one of the top places for people from Commonwealth and former Commonwealth countries to choose to immigrate to. As each typical immigration lawyer or service company requires several people that work on the cases to be qualified as immigration workers, there is a need for qualified immigration consultants that can meet with those wishing to immigrate and handle all of the details of their case. One school in Toronto, The Academy of Learning Toronto, has even created a immigration consultant program that provides all of the training necessary to become a certified immigration consultant, a qualification that can be used worldwide in order to help those interested in immigrating to Canada move their cases forward.

Language and Culture Instructors:

Several years ago, Canada gained a reputation for having the clearest English speakers around. By listening to Canadians, many people that are interested in learning English have been able to improve their English pronunciation faster than they have with other countries that speak English natively. To capitalize on this trend, Canadians that would like to work in Canada or abroad helping people to learn English as a second language or as a foreign language need to finish a bachelor’s degree program, preferably in language or culture. The upside for those that choose to join the industry is that they will be able to travel while earning a decent income, giving them even more opportunity to expand into either higher level language instruction or linguistics.
