I have a 1-year postgrad certificate program in Canada. I also have a 4-year bachelor's degree from the US. Can I use both for EE/FSW?

As per the website:

To get points for having 2 or more credentials, you need an assessment for each one.
To get full points for more than 1 credential, at least 1 of the credentials must be for 3 or more years of study.
The order that you complete your credentials does not affect points.


Does this apply in my scenario where I have a 4-year bachelor's degree from the US and a 1-year postgrad certificate in Canada and can it be used for my EE/FSW application?

If so, it would help me out MASSIVELY when it comes to points. I understand that if so, I would need to get an ECA for my bachelor's degree.

And for FSW in particular, since my Canadian certificate only gives me 15 points out of 25 while a bachelor's degree equivalent gives 21, I assume I would be getting 21 in that scenario even though my certificate was more recent/higher status and requires a bachelor's degree?

Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Yes it applies to you too, provided you have ECA.

Yes you can use it for your EE/FSW application.

In EE/FSW, you are eligible for "Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees

Thank you!

So a bachelor's degree would be regarded higher than a postgrad certificate?
