Hi there people.
I have a question:
My wife is applying for Federal Skilled worker... she is NOC 4142 (english as second language) and we were reading the details and it says:

Employment requirements

* A bachelor's degree in education is required.

She studied at a Teachers´ training college that it doesn´t grant a university degree.
Would she aplly without problems? no matter if she had to revalidate her tittle once we are in Canada.
Thank you so much!!!

Does she have a Bachelor's degree at all? How many points does she get on self-assessment test?

on self test it goes 71pts.
And the word "bachelor" is used differently in Canada. They use bachelor meaning that you have a degree granted by universities.
Here in Argentina a bachelor is somebody who studied something after high school. "profesorado" or "terciario" are similar degrees.
