What NOC did you select as for your job?

And what date did you select for 'when did xxx become qualified to work in NOC blah'?

 

[Pippin]

Have you included your time as an apprentice in your years of work experience? I am not sure they count the time spent working while you are studying. Double check the requirements. Good luck.

but get also 0 points for educational level ????
...
Bachelor's degree OR a three or more year program at a university, college, trade or technical school, or other institute 120 points

You mentioned an apprenticeship (on-the-job training), but do you have a degree or diploma? That is what is meant here by "education" -

Your apprenticeship experience is work experience.

You should qualify under the Federal Skilled Trades class.

Do you have a spouse? Your score will increase if your spouse takes the language exam. If /she has foreign degrees/diplomas, getting the credentials assessment will add points...

And work experience... again - must be a Skilled NOC.

 

[jes_ON]

also rewrote my redseal ticket here in canada which i passed but get also 0 points for educational level ????

Re-wrote in Canada? Where and when did you originally "write" it?

Also, what's your NOC and province? Is trade certification optional or mandatory?

 

[fossy]

noc code would be 7321 Automotive service technicians, truck and bus mechanics and mechanical repairers

didnt include apprenticeship years in the time apprenticeship was 3,5 years but i already have over 10 years in the same job field

diploma and degree i would understand as my journeyman ticket wouldnt it ??? which i have for germany and also for canada (red seal ticket) which i re-wrote in saskatchewan 2nd year i was here so in 2007. redseal allows me to work anywhere in canada as a mechanic accept quebec
current province living and wanting to stay alberta for last 5 years

dont have a spouse its just me myself and i

You would think, but - you get a separate 50 pts for that. Did you attend any trade school or college in either Germany or Canada? Or was your aprenticeship arranged through a college or institute?

If not - do you have (the equivalent of) a high school diploma? It is not required to get credentials assessed for CEC or FST, but you cannot get points for education without the credentials assessment. An ECA for the high school diploma will net 30 pts...

which i have for germany and also for canada (red seal ticket) which i re-wrote in saskatchewan 2nd year i was here so in 2007.

if you got the Canadian red seal in 2007, and you've been working as a journeyman since then... there's something else wrong ... double-check to make sure there are no typos anywhere on the NOCs...

Did you answer "Yes" to having a valid work status / permit? Did you answer "no" to studying full-time?

Did you include any foreign work experience in your profile?

 

[fossy]

didnt attend any kind of school in canada , just went straight to writing the journeyman test here in canada for the redseal
back home in germany i just finished normal apprenticeship program 3,5 years work and shool
when it comes to shool well shool system is different in germany finished my 10 years which is the most normal people do for normal working situations

before i click on withdraw profile is that the only way to change any thing or to recheck my application ????

 

[purplesnow]

There's no agency that can evaluate trades yet so the only education points you can get is 50 for the red seal & 30 if you get your high school evaluated.
We're the jobs in Canada skilled?

 

[fossy]

all the jobs i had here where always as a automotive mechanic so id be saying yes

 

[fossy]

or is the only other way to create a new profile ?

 

[ozlis]

I had issues with my Canadian experience showing up after an update. I went in, changed something, saved it and then changed it back and saved again. The next day my points updated to be correct.

Maybe give that a shot?

 

[fossy]

but did you click on withdraw profile or not to change it afterwards and i dont really know if clicking on withdraw will delete ?!?!? the profile ?

 

[ozlis]

Nope, there is a button at the bottom that says 'view submitted profile' or similar and you can change items from there.
