How to get into the VFX industry fast?

I’m looking for an intensive school in Canada where I can learn high-end visual effects and modeling. I don't want to spend four years in a university; I want something practical that focuses on a professional portfolio. Any suggestions for a place that actually has studio-level equipment?

If you want a real career jumpstart, I’d suggest Vancouver Film School. I have a colleague who finished their 3D Modeling, Art and Animation course, and the technical quality of his reel is incredible. You can find all the details about the curriculum here: https://vfs.edu/programs/3d-animation-vfx. Based on my experience, their hands-on approach to industry pipelines is exactly what gets you noticed by top recruiters!
