My IELTS Score is L8 R7 W6.5 S7.5 and I have two or more degrees and spouse has a bachelors degree

should the Skill Transferability score be still 0?
certificate of qualification is for trade occupations not for professional occupations so it should not apply to you. And, what are your two or more degree/diplomas?

Select 2 year post secondary diploma. You should get 119 (If married) and 128 (if single).

Yes, since you meet the requirement of having one diploma being equivalent to a 3 year program.

I have a B.Tech (4 hrs) and a Post graduate certificate in Information Security from IGNOU. I checked the following link

"www wes org/educators/pdf/indiapolicypacket.pdf " and it has below mentioned on page 15

"Postgraduate Diplomas (PGDip) within the university sector almost always require a minimum of a bachelor’s degree for admission. However, this may not be the case with non-university institutions. Programs range from six months to two years, although most require one year of full-time study. PGDip programs are generally professionally oriented. The Association of Indian Universities recognizes Post Graduate Diplomas in Management (PGDM) from a small number of non-university institutions as equivalent to an MBA from an Indian university. "

Would this also mean that 6 months PG certificate can also fetch me points. Has anyone applied and experienced it? Please assist!

Well this would at the discretion of WES or ICAS, submit your transcripts and see what it comes up.

My WES evaluation of my diploma says certificate(one semester) for Canadian equivalence. Where would that go. I already have my bachelor's assessed and it say degree four years
Hi mytimet ,

What was the course duration for your Diploma? And where did you pursue the Diploma from?

Have you submitted the details in EE profile and did you get the points for both?

Hi all,

Please help me on this as I have ITA already and I am about to finish my application.

My ECA result is "Diploma (Two years) and bachelor's degree (four years)"

Does this count as "Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees"?

Hey guys, need your advice. I'm holding two post graduate diploma certificates, one year duration each, pursued through distance mode from WES recognized universities. I'm also holding a bachelor degree of 4 years duration. Could anyone advise me whether WES will consider my certificates under 'two or more certificates....'? Many thanks!

There is only one way to find out, apply for WES evaluation. I have Bachelors ( 3 years) from India. And Two post graduate certificates (both one semester only) from United Kingdom and mine was counted as Two or more post graduate certificates.

Many Thanks for your response!! I have one more query, please clarify. I've read in few forums that there's no mention of "two or more certificates, diplomas........" while filling up express entry application. Have you filled your application and did you find that option therein? Your response would be helpful. Thanks.

There is no such option. You enter your diplomas one by one, separately.

It seems this "two or more certificates" thing is not valid anymore as it rewarded me extra points adding a "diploma 2 years" and a "bachelors 4 years" while according to this link, it should have given me points only for the bachelors.
