Hi guys,
I have been very confused by the PNP federal process.
My husband has a 2-year associate bachelor degree from the states, and it should be equivalent to 2 year colleges in Canada, says the WES report.

However, in the generic form IMM0008, when it asks for the highest level of education. I am about confused what I should choose from:
Trade/ apprentice certificate/ diploma
Non- university certificate/ diploma

Thank you!

You can use the ECA report link to find out but it is the first one.

But you said above - Trade/ apprentice certificate/ diploma

It is a equivalent to a diploma
Yes. It certainly is a diploma. I just do not understand the difference between NON-University degree/diploma, and Trade/Apprentice Certificate/diploma. It seems to me that they are both diploma. My ECA report does not say anything about the specifically type of diploma, it just said it's a 2 year diploma.

Thank you !

Non-university could be a flight or language school. It just means not at a university.
