What graduates are saying about Metro College of Technology?

AWAIS REHMAN, Data Analyst

When I joined Metro College I was on a contract position and looking to develop skills required to be a successful analyst. Right after I completed the SAS Programming Certificates, I was promoted to a management position at a major telecom company. I am very happy with the progress of my career.

LINGFANG XU, Accounts Payable Clerk

I just wanted to say thank you for all your support, I finally got the job of my dreams as an Accounts Payable clerk. Thank you Metro College!

FARZAD A. DAHOOEI, Structural Engineering Designer

Studying Civil Engineering Design at Metro College updated my knowledge of the most useful software in civil and structural design in a reasonable time. Doing Co-Op not only helped me find my desired job but also enriched me with the Canadian experience to fulfil the criteria to apply for P.Eng designation.

HUAQIONG HAN

It is a fantastic experience of learning here for Computerized Accounting. I finished the Diploma in 8 months here and spent another two weeks finding a job without any background of Accounting. Very nice and patient teachers and perfect job hunting training. One of the best technology school in Toronto.
