Quick check shows TAFE as a "national" NOT "international" accredited
course. You would have to check further but on the face of it I doubt it
will mean much in Canada.
It sounds similar to the NVQ used in the UK which does not transate too well
to Canada in most cases.
The A+ will give you only the minimum requirement for entry level IT jobs.
Had you taken Cisco or Microsoft certs then these would translate pretty
well.
Like you I also have the A+ and a couple of "nondescript" cerst as well as
Microsoft ones
