Hi Koel,
For your sister to be eligible she has to have
1. One CONTINUOUS year of experience from the current NOC and should be in the last 10years
2. She will be awarded EXTRA points for other work ONLY if they fall in the SKILL CATEGORY of O, A or B ; need not have to be from the current NOC ; but cannot be just any work; the rest of the work experience does not have to be continuous; should also occur in the last 10 years.
How to determine skill levels:
With any NOC code, you can see from the numbers what category it is.
If it starts with 0 like 0311, it is a manager position and falls under skill type 0
If it doesn't start with 0 but the 2nd digit is 1, like 1122, it is a skill level A position.
If it doesn't start with 0 but the 2nd digit is 2, like 1222 or 3 like 7311, it is a skill level B position.
If it doesn't start with 0 and the 2nd digit is 4 or 5, it's a skill level C and if the 2nd digit is 6, it's a skill level D.
Skill Type 0
This includes senior management occupations and middle and other management positions.
Skill Level A
Occupations at this level usually require university education at the bachelor's, master's or doctorate level.
Skill Level B
Occupations at this level usually require education obtained at a college or vocational institute, apprenticeship training, or three to four years of secondary school followed by more than two years of on-the-job training, specialized training courses or specific work experience.
