Frequently Asked Questions

Faq's

How many students are in a class?

Our maximum class size for our 2021 intakes will be reduced to 9-15 students and all programs will be offered online only for the time being. Pending further updates from the government, we hope to reopen the campus for in-class instruction in summer or fall 2021.

When do programs start?

We have several program start dates throughout the year. Please contact us or visit the program page for more information on when the next intake date is for your program of choice.

How much does a program cost?

Cost varies by program. You can find up-to-date program tuition and fee breakdown appears on the Finances pages of the website.

Are CTC programs eligible for student loans?

Yes! We are designated by the Private Training Institutions Branch (PTIB) of the BC government, which makes our programs eligible for provincial and federal student loans.

Does CTC accept transfer credits from other schools?

Yes! The Canadian Tourism College will consider applications from students that may be eligible for recognition of prior learning or a credit transfer. To submit an application, CTC requires a full course outline, transcript of marks showing successful completion at a post-secondary institution or will require a meeting with the Senior Education Administrator to discuss recognition of prior learning that commenced outside a post-secondary institution. Please note a fee of $250.00 is due for assessment considerations. Please contact us to obtain an application form.

Can CTC guarantee me a job when I graduate?

You will receive a high-level of education and training with a focus on employable skills in a growing field. However, your employability will also depend on things like your work ethic and attitude. We work hard to highlight these things throughout our programs to ensure you are in the best possible place to be hired when you graduate.

What kind of job can I get when I graduate?

This will depend on what program you take, but the travel, tourism, and hospitality industry is rapidly growing across British Columbia. Our graduates have gone on to find employment as flight attendants, ticket agents, guest services agents, tour guides and operators, front office managers, and event planners, to name a few! So really the question is: what kind of job do you want?

Can I transfer into a University program when I finish?

Yes! The number of transfer credits you will get in recognition of the program you completed at CTC will depend on the university you are interested in attending. CTC has established partnerships with a few universities to make this transition easier for you. Check out Pathways & Partners to learn more!

Are CTC programs recognized across Canada and the world?

Yes they are! We are proud of our connections across the globe and the various locations our alumni have gone to work. For more details, please ask your Admissions Advisor, or check out our Graduate Outcomes.
