Hi,Hi All,
I need an urgent help. Would appreciate if anyone can help here. My post graduate diploma has been assessed as Postgraduate diploma (one semester). Can you please tell how I should proceed in this situation? Should I select "Two or more diploma/degree .." option in Express Entry?
Below is My WES evaluation for your reference:
CANADIAN EQUIVALENCY SUMMARY
Bachelor's degree (three years)
CREDENTIAL ANALYSIS
1. Credential Authentication: Documents were sent directly by the institution
Country: India
Credential: Bachelor of Commerce
Year: 2006
Awarded by: Saurashtra University
Status: Recognized Institution
Major/Specialization: Business Administration
Canadian Equivalency: Bachelor's degree (three years)
2. Credential Authentication: Documents were sent directly by the institution
Country: India
Credential: University Postgraduate Diploma
Year: 2012
Awarded by: Gujarat University
Status: Recognized Institution
Major/Specialization: Marketing Management
Canadian Equivalency: Postgraduate diploma (one semester)
This is a tricky one. My gut tells me that this will not qualify as "two or more..." because Postgraduate diploma (one semester) does not appear on the list of accepted credentials:
Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees.
Important notice: One must be for a program of three or more years.
ECA assessment results:
A three-year or more certificate, diploma, or degree
PLUS any of the results in the sections below (not including secondary/high school), or:
- Post-Bachelor's Certificate
- Post-undergraduate certificate
- Post-Bachelor's Diploma
- Post-undergraduate diploma
- Graduate Certificate
- Graduate Certificate with a focus in [area of concentration]
- Postgraduate certificate
- Postgraduate Diploma
- Graduate Diploma with a focus in [area of concentration]
- Graduate diploma
- two-year Postgraduate Diploma, specializing in [name of discipline]
- two-year Bachelor’s after degree with a focus in [area of concentration]
- one-year Postgraduate Certificate in [name of discipline]
- Dual Bachelor’s degree (four years)
But then again, the above does not specify how long the Diploma should have taken. The only way to be sure is to create an EE profile and see how many points it gives you. There is no option to select "two or more..", you enter each credential separately and then the system gives you the appropriate number of points.
Please let me know what the system awards you.
All the best
