Hi.
I graduated this summer 2020 in Alberta, with the diploma in Information Technology. Currently hold PGWP expired in July 2023.
I got a job and have been working since August, and the title is Computer technician, title of NOC 2242 Electronic service Technician.
https://www.jobbank.gc.ca/marketreport/requirements/3287/ca
https://alis.alberta.ca/occinfo/occupations-in-alberta/occupation-profiles/computer-service-technician/
I check the duties of both sites, and the descriptions match 90% of my work. But both sites state that this NOC is provincial regulated. My company hired me base on only my IT diploma, I've never heard about any license, certification or registration to do the job. I asked all my colleagues, and they said they don't have any registration and this job doesn't need a license to work like doctor, nurse or engineer if you want to call yourself P.Eng
My questions:
1/ Do I need to match their education requirement, because computer is related to my study filed, but electronic is the primary NOC, and I don't have electronic education ?
2/ if I apply for CEC in September 2021, and they ask me for registration to do the job because of regulated requirement, how can I do that while I already work for 1 year without any registration, will that affect my company because they hire somebody to work without registration in regulated occupation? And my CEC application got rejected?
Any advice? I need your help, this issue strees me out so much. Thank you.
