Hi

Can someone please explain which category I can choose in my express entry profile:

I have done 3 years bachelors from India and two graduate certificates in Canada what should i choose in this column...

What is your level of education?

Enter the highest level of education for which you:

  • earned a Canadian degree, diploma or certificate or
  • had an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) if you did your study outside Canada. (ECAs must be from an approved agency, in the last five years)
Note: a Canadian degree, diploma or certificate must either have been earned at an accredited Canadian university, college, trade or technical school, or other institute in Canada. Distance learning counts, but only if it made up less than half your study.

1) Bachelor's degree ?

2) Two or more certificates, diplomas, degrees (one must be a program for three or more years) ?

If you have ECA for your Bachelors Degree, then you can choose "Two or more"

Hay thanks for your replies...

I have not done ECA but am sure anyone has gone through the same profile.

It's a 3 year bachelor's from punjab university

Then 2 graduate certificate
(1 year each ) different colleges from Canada

I am asking is it my high level of education or only bachelor's because in the question they are asking high level of education .. it confuses me whether it is only done from back home (india) or all together ?

Thanks ...

U will claim points only for those degrees that u have done in Canada or for which u have Eca. If u don’t have ECA thn mention your Indian education in personal history only. If u have Eca thn do what @mrpreetsingh has said

Hay thanks for reply.

I have not done ECA yet but need to know whether I can put myself under two or more certificates because I have

3 years bachelor's from India
1 graduate certificate ( Canada)
1 graduate certificate ( Canada )

Or it only counts as a bachelor degree under my level of education section
