Hello ,
I got my WES ECA result as following :
Bachelor's degree (four years) and postgraduate diploma (one semester)
The one semester is mentioned despite finishing the PG Cert in one year. I am wondering if this counts as 2 or more degrees category ? and if anything could be done ?'
Thank you in advance

I have received my online ECA report but there is an issue. My bachelors degree of four years has been evaluated correctly but my masters degree of 2.5 years has been evaluated as a bachelors degree of four years too. Is this normal or should I resend my masters degree for evaluation again? So please help me out.

It can happen according to your diploma and university. You can claim the points of 2 or more diplomas. If it gets you a good rnough score it's fine. Otherwise try icas

So I have a bachelor's of Commerce which is evaluated by WES as 4 years Canadian bachelors degree.

Now I am planning on completing a certificate or diploma for 1 year or 8 months in canada, however some people are suggesting me that I can not claim points for 2 or more certificates .
Reason - Most 1 year certificate or diploma's are done post 12th grade in canada.

I am being told to do a post baccalaureate diploma or advanced diploma which are having a requirement of a minimum degree with duration ranging 2 to 3 years.

I am confused if this is true ? because in express entry it asks to entry the highest degree first.
