CBBC Career College - Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

As an international student, I feel extremely stressed studying here. The process for provincial nominations and work permits now takes over six months, making it challenging for international students to find jobs or immigrate. The college pretends to be unaware of these issues and continues to open many classes just to make money. It's even become difficult to secure a hopeful practicum placement.

Cheating during exams is widespread at this college. They rarely change the exam questions, so senior students download the exam reviews and pass the answers along to students in later cohorts.

The college frequently changes its policies without properly informing students. For example, even though each student is allowed a 10% absence, we are sometimes still required to make up time, even when the absence is counted. Additionally, it's common for instructors to change mid-course, which makes it difficult to adjust to the new grading criteria.

Overall, it's been a terrible experience at this school.

The reason why I chose CBBC Career College was they offer 1 year ECE course and we can get Level 2 when we graduate. As the course is intensive, we study really hard. However, you can save your time and tuition and teachers are very supportive. What is more, the location is perfect. You can take public transportations, study at Alderney Gate Public Library, which is across the street, and get coffee at several nice cafes around here.

I'm a student attending the Hairdressing course at CBBC Regency Salon and Spa and it has been amazing. The environment, the teachers, the other students attending are great. The guidance and support I have gotten has been more than I could ask for. I appreciate and thank all the teachers for their support, and I recommend people come here for their education, u won't regret it!

Don't trust the rating here. I’ve never been this harsh in my comments about others, but I have to say this college is terrible. They provide no real support for international students, focusing only on collecting money while drowning in bureaucracy without taking any meaningful action.

I am in the ECE program at CBBC Career college as an international student and I am very happy I made the choice to study here as the school has been very supportive and I like that the classes are small and it has become like a family here for me. Julie is an awesome teacher for Early Childhood and she brings in a wealth of experience in day care. I thoroughly enjoy my daily classes and I do recommend this place if you need to get your certificate in a year as other places take 2 years to complete. They offer really good placements and support you when you are in doubt.

I'm a student at CBBC Regency Salon and I wanted to say thank you to the teachers for teaching me the skills I require to succeed while also supporting me. The past five months of my enrollment have been helpful in teaching me what my passions are and who I aspire to be!

As an international student used to study in the college, believe me, if you are an international student, do not choose this school! The CCA program is a complete joke! They will not give international students any useful help. Important things to say three times, don't choose here! Do not choose here!! Do not choose here!!!
