Hi Everyone,

Firstly thank you for taking the time to help me,

I'm busy filling out my express entry profile in the education section but i dont know what i should select for the "Level of education" and "Level of education (Canadian equivalent) shown on Education Credential Assessment (ECA) report..."

I have a diploma (2 years) and a degree (3 years) but i got both from different universities now when filling out my diploma for "Level of education" should i select 2 year program or 2 or more certificates (Diplomas or degrees) and also for the "Level of education (Canadian equivalent) shown on Education Credential Assessment (ECA) report..." should i select 2 year program or 2 or more certificates (Diplomas or degrees) and must i do the same but change it to "bachelor's degree or three year program" for my degree or select "2 or more certificates (Diplomas or degrees)"

Lastly for work,

i got my qualification (Diploma) in may 2013 but i have been working the specified NOC since June 2011 but it asks me when did i start my NOC should i select it from the date i got my qualification or from the day i officially started working in the same NOC that i got my qualification for.

Sorry i know its a bit confusing but i'm hella confused about what i should put/add/modify in the profile.

Thank you again.

What does the Canadian Equivalency Summary on your ECA say ?
If it says "diploma (2 years) and a degree (3 years)" like you've indicated, then you "Two or more..."
You need to select "Two or more..." for both options.


Lastly for work,

i got my qualification (Diploma) in may 2013 but i have been working the specified NOC since June 2011 but it asks me when did i start my NOC should i select it from the date i got my qualification or from the day i officially started working in the same NOC that i got my qualification for.
Are you referring to the question "When did you become qualified to practice this NOC?"
If so, then it's when you finished your degree.


Sorry i know its a bit confusing but i'm hella confused about what i should put/add/modify in the profile.

Thank you again.
