Hello Guys,

Pharmacy, being a professional course they are awarding 135 points out of 150 in education. I have already done with my ECA of my foreign pharmacy degree but it states that its only for purpose of "FSWP" programme. Though I don't have any foreign experience and I have 1 year of canadian experience which in not in the profession of pharmacy. SO Am I still getting the points for my 'ECA" under express entry?
 
Yes,

my friend who was pharmacy and he got points for that even though he is not a pharmacist.
 
should we choose Professional degree option or just a bachelor degree?? if we do from WES , it says bachelor degree..
 
does it say eligible to have licence for practice as pharmacist in Canada?
 
I selected Degree required to enter licensed profession. and I only claimed one year pharmacy experience. I also have 2 years non pharmacy skilled experience as supervisor in retail and supervisor in restaurant but I did not claim it.

I dont think you can claim points for professional degree, it must be verified by PEBC, then only you will be eligible for it.

Are you a pharmacist in Canada? did you got invitation in CEC or FSW?

If you have PEBC degree evaluation letter than you can select professional degree. I did that and I already got my PPR. If you have a degree that is required to enter the licensed profession than you can declare that. you are not lying as pharmacist is a licensed profession in Canada.
 
But the letter itself states that its only for FSW, so can you select CEC instead?

I don't think it matters as CIC recommends pharmacists doing degree evaluation with PEBC. PEBC has only one standard format for the letter. They do not provide separate letters for CEC and FSW. Even if it says FSW on top its still a degree evaluation and I dont think it should be a problem. Or at least I did not have any.
