Thanks a lot, canadestin, for your reply, I hope you will help to make this clear: DO THEY CALCULATE THE POINTS ACCORDING TO THE TOTAL YEARS OF STUDY OR TO THE DIPLOMA YEARS? Because in my case total years study is 14, but the highest diploma is 3 years.
And what about my husband's case: Secondary school - 8 years, then technical institute - diploma, 5 years.

According to David Cohen, I can apply for Skilled Worker Program (I have made a total calculation in his site) but I would like to make sure about the education points.

Thank you very much.

Canadestin, I studied 10 years in Russian Secondary school, and that time it was COMPLETED RUSSIAN SECONDARY SCHOOL - yes ONLY 10 YEARS, not 12, like in other countries.
After that I had Technical School for 1 year, and received diploma of dressmaker, then
another Technical School for 3 years, and received diploma of designer.

However, I apply for Skilled Worker Program under the category "Food and Restaurant Management", as I have spent more than 10 years working at the same position.

And my husband originally not from Russia, he finished only 8 years of Secondary school (from 11 in total) and then studied in Technical College for 5 years, received diploma of Mechanic.
I hope it is clear now.


Thanks.

Another thing I would like to ask, if the total score might be less than 67, in the Emigration Guide is written as follows:
"However, you may apply if you believe there are other factors that would help you to become economically established in Canada that were not reflected in your points assessment. Send a detailed letter with your application explaining these factors. Include any documents that support your claim. "
IF I will get slightly less than 67, but I have got big experience in a very famous International Restaurant Chain, many training courses and letters of appreciation from the high managers.
I wonder can I still apply or my chances are so little ?
As I already said, David Cohen said yes, what do you think, Canadestin?

If David Cohen said -Yes, then I am sure he has very solid reason to say so. You may follow his instructions. However, the decision to grant points on the basis of acheivments, ability to establish successfully and contributing to Canadian Economy, solely lies with the Visa officer scrutinizing your application - this is known as Substituted Evaluation

Obtained a one-year diploma, trade certificate or apprenticeship and completed at least 13 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies - 15 points

Obtained a two-year diploma, trade certificate or apprenticeship and completed at least 14 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies - 20 points

Obtained a three-year diploma, trade certificate or apprenticeship (other than university) and completed at least 15 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies - 22 points


you get 15 points for education. because u have 1 year and 3year diploma, but for 3 year diploma u need to have 15 years of full time education where as u have only 14years of ful time education.

You dont fit in the second one because ..even though u have 14yrs of full time education u dont have diploma of 2 years.

For ur husband education u get 4 points.

3 year diploma will not replace 2 year diploma?
Thank you.

 

[canadestin]

3 year diploma will not replace 2 year diploma?
Thank you.

no...if that was the case they wud have specified 2 or more years....

3 year diploma will not replace 2 year diploma?
Thank you.

I think you are correct. You should get 20 points. 3 year diploma is superior to 2 year diploma and you already have 14 years of schooling..This is my sole opinion and let others comment as well. But in my opinion you will get 20 points.

Thanks
