You will not get points for the OIT. Points are only awarded for certifications of qualifications in trades like electrician and plumber.

Hi,

Need an help to understand the term Certificate of Qualification.

I am on my work permit and have 2 years of work experience in IT Support Technician. Also have one trade certificate, but I don't have any work experience in this field. Sould I select yes while creating my express entry profile to obtain additional points?

Does your certificate clearly show that it is Certificate of Qualification on the certificate or just shown as certificate/license?


Where do you get the information ?. CES applicants still can claim points for the certificate of qualification.
Hi , I have certificate of qualification for pharmacy technicians from pharmacy examining board of Canada. Will this get me 50 points under express entry?

Hello sir,
I used Drinking-Water Operator Certificate, Wastewater Operator Certificate, and Wastewater Operator Licence, all expiring 2021/08/31, issued by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (processed by the Ontario Water Wastewater Certification Office) in Canadian Experience Class. I got query from CIC officer -
"
The submitted Drinking-Water Operator Certificate, Wastewater Operator Certificate, and Wastewater Operator Licence do not appear to be consistent with the definition of “certificate of qualification” on the publicly-available Canada.ca website (https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/compare.html), which defines “certificate of qualification” as follows:
A certificate of qualification proves that a person is qualified to work in a certain skilled trade in Canada. This means that they:
 have passed a certification exam
 meet all the requirements to practice their trade in that province or territory.
This certificate is issued by the body that governs trades in a Canadian province or territory, or by a federal authority. Depending on which body or authority issues it, this certificate may be called a “certificate of qualification” or a “qualification certificate”.
Please provide additional evidence supporting your declaration that you hold a certificate of qualification, as noted above. This includes any evidence you wish to be considered clearly demonstrates completed training in a skilled trade occupation, qualification in that trade occupation (as issued by a competent provincial or federal authority), and how you meet all the requirements to practice that skilled trade in your province."
Can you please advise how I have to respond this query as soon as possible. I have 5 more days only to reply this query.
Thank You

Sir send me your email id we will discuss about it

It is for trades certification only and you can be eligible if your score is high enough through FSW. Click on certificate of qualification to get the definition.

Thanks but this speaks about FST right? I understand Certificate of Qualification is a mandatory component under FST. But what if for example a hairstylist with a trade certificate from province tries to claim CEC experience ? In that case , can the person also claim 50 points under Certificate of Qualification?

No you can claim a certificate of qualification for FSW or CEC.

But in one of the previous posts, you had mentioned that Organic Waste water certification (ON) does not get extra 50 points ?

So a person can have a NOC B experience and still claim 50 points for a trade like Organic Waste Water Treatment Plant certification from ON?

I have one question. In the EE entry there's a question " Do you have certificate of qualification from a Canadian province or territory?
I have my RECE license for early childhood educator, Should I say YES or should I put NO?
