Well. We had discussed this subject in sow other threads.

In general, yes, experience, once proved, can overcome the education element. This is what the op6 stated. What I suggest is;

1- Select your target NOC
2- go to HRSDC to learn about the employment requirement
3- you need to learn whether the job is regulated or not
4- then the OP6 could be consulted accordingly.

Let's know which NOC is yours to get feedback from this forum members.

Cheers

Hello Knta,

You should be fine with experience.

OP6 stands for Overseas Processing guide 6 that CIC Officers use as a guide for FSW. It's good to read it. Here is the link:
