"We work closely with every client to maximize chances of success. Using our expertise, we connect with each client and guide them in making smart decisions, which are likely to have a positive impact on their immigration application. By having the mental bandwidth to sourcing and implementing new solutions, we quickly adapt to fast-changing rules and regulations.''- Keshav Singla

Spearheading growth and development in the realms of immigration and education, meet Keshav Singla, Director and Owner of Ovation Immigration Services Ltd. and President and Owner of Kootenay Columbia College of Integrative Health Sciences (KCCIHS). Having gone through the immigration cycle himself, Singla realized just how complex the process can be. With the core value of providing effective and innovative solutions to immigrant problems quickly, Singla founded Ovation Immigration Services with the uncompromising focus to shape a better future for clients. The company assists clients in all types of immigration applications such as study permits, work permits, LMIA, and permanent residency applications.

Singla shares, “We work closely with every client to maximize chances of success. Using our expertise, we connect with each client and guide them in making smart decisions, which are likely to have a positive impact on their immigration application. By having the mental bandwidth to sourcing and implementing new solutions, we quickly adapt to fast-changing rules and regulations.”

The knowledgeable expert always advises his clients to be acutely aware of the challenges a newcomer faces in Canada, to communicate their challenges and goals, and finally, to have a positive attitude towards their immigration application. With Singla’s background in accounting and business management, his practice genuinely helps clients succeed, whether that means reuniting families, aiding career moves, or fostering educational success.

In terms of Singla’s education-oriented venture, he passionately leads Kootenay Columbia College, which has been providing exceptional learning experiences to students, both domestic and international, since 1996. The College is unique in itself as it is one of the only 9 Colleges in BC to offer an accredited Registered Massage Therapy Program. It also is the first in the province to offer an accredited Traditional Chinese Medicine program. The College provides unique programs with clear program objectives and career outcomes, alongside promoting experiential learning, with small class sizes and industry experienced instructors. All programs are distinct and demonstrate a holistic approach to learning including guest lectures, informal discussions, shared classes in professional development, research, business practices, and treatments from faculty.

Singla shares, “Combined with practical learning and innovative delivery of quality education, we are confident that students will attain the skills they need to confidently thrive in their chosen careers.” The College has four campuses in beautiful downtown Nelson, BC. Future plans for the College include opening its fifth campus in the Lower Mainland.

Singla’s future vision for his businesses is to continue to bring people together to learn, study and work in a supportive, and inclusive environment. Singla states, “Kootenay Columbia College has risen to become an educational leader in the field of health sciences. Our continued passion is to build a community where learning is the foundation of new experiences and opportunities.” With the continued desire to offer a well-rounded approach to learning, Singla’s business ventures truly go hand in hand when it comes to strengthening the economic and multicultural fabric of Canada.
