Thanks Century,Century said:Yes, professor, experience is relevant as long as it falls under skill level O, A or B of ANY NOCs and not necessarily it got to be within 50 eligible NOCs. See the link below:

Factor 3: Work experience (maximum of 15 points)
You will receive points for the number of years of full-time paid work (or the equivalent in part-time paid work) you have obtained within the last ten years. Full-time means at least 30 hours of paid work in one week.
You must have at least one year of continuous full-time, paid work experience (or the equivalent in continuous part-time work) in the primary occupation you specify in your application.
In order to receive points for all of the jobs you have had over the past ten years, your work experience must be in one or more occupations listed in Skill Type 0, Skill Level A or B of NOC 2011. Follow the Determining your NOC category instructions above to find the NOC 2011 category that matches your skilled work experience over the past ten years.
That is very helpful. This detailed guide is going to prove very handy for many potential queries that might arise during the application procedure.
