If i were to do my tertiary studies in Medicine or Law in Canada would i only be able to practice in Canada


If i were to do my tertiary studies in Medicine or Law in Canada would i only be able to practice in Canada?
My friend and I were talking about Universities and we heard from someone that if we enter into Medicine or Law in a country, we will be confined to that country due to the knowledge learnt being region specific. Like if i study Medicine in New Zealand i wouldn't be able to work in Indonesia because the diseases are different. Is this the same with Law? Can anyone clear this up for us? Thanks =D

Hey Dave (and friend), This is the (only) way that I have seen it work out... You graduate and work in an institution, that later "allows"*** you to further your studies to their benefit in the future. So it is only feasible if it is part of a long range agreement/plan. If it is for starting your career, then understandably, no. Legally, a country cannot allow that for fear of repercussions from within their nation. *** = in an open agreement that is contractual and binding. If however in later course of time, you switch jobs and employers, you may already have the confidence to convince your employer to take into consideration your foreign earned credentials, and to "aid" in seeking accreditation, either by the employer's own standards, or the country you and the employer are residing in.
