Few queries on WES ECA

[AgentC]

Hi Friends,

I have few queries on WES ECA.. It will be great if somebody can shed some light:

1. Is it possible to get points for professional certificate like C.A. (Chartered Accountant). My spouse has completed C.A. post 3-years Bachelor of Commerce. So, I was wondering if we can get some extra points for C.A. qualification.

2. Is ECA required for secondary applicant? I was creating EE profile before awhile. It asked for ECA report reference number and other details for my own educational credentials but did not ask these details for my spouse's educational credentials. So, I was wondering if ECA is required for secondary applicants

3. Is it possible to get points for PMP (Project Management Professional) certification?

4. And lastly, can WES make mistake in evaluating a credential? I completed 2 years full-time MBA from IIT Bombay post my 4-year B.E. course. My B.E. has been correctly mapped to 4-years bachelor's course but MBA has been mapped to only 'One year graduate study'. Because of this I am getting points only for B.E. (112 points). So, is there anybody else around who has done 2 years full-time MBA and has got it evaluated?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi Friends,

I have few queries on WES ECA.. It will be great if somebody can shed some light:

1. Is it possible to get points for professional certificate like C.A. (Chartered Accountant). My spouse has completed C.A. post 3-years Bachelor of Commerce. So, I was wondering if we can get some extra points for C.A. qualification. I don't think you can claim extra points for CA, for the simple reason it is not a full time study. And also WES evaluates and allots points for full time university or technical level education.

2. Is ECA required for secondary applicant? I was creating EE profile before awhile. It asked for ECA report reference number and other details for my own educational credentials but did not ask these details for my spouse's educational credentials. So, I was wondering if ECA is required for secondary applicants. Yes if the secondary applicant is accompanying you.

3. Is it possible to get points for PMP (Project Management Professional) certification? As reiterated, if this is a full time university based course, you might be accredited with some points.

4. And lastly, can WES make mistake in evaluating a credential? I completed 2 years full-time MBA from IIT Bombay post my 4-year B.E. course. My B.E. has been correctly mapped to 4-years bachelor's course but MBA has been mapped to only 'One year graduate study'. Because of this I am getting points only for B.E. (112 points). So, is there anybody else around who has done 2 years full-time MBA and has got it evaluated? Generally a full time MBA is treated as Master's degree. You may want to check with WES on this. I would be curious to know about this evaluation.
Thanks in advance!!

Folks!

"One year graduate study..." translates to "Two or more programs...". Please check the CIC site, the last update (June 15, 2016) clearly mentions that.
