Points for Certification of Skills

[vignesh2528]

Hi,

I'm looking to apply for express entry and came across a big question regarding getting points for the skills certification.

I have a pilot licence and is my primary job(NOC 2271). This is a federally regulated industry and I have the licence issued by Transport Canada.
In an example, in the CIC website it talks about aircraft mechanics who are qualified and are regulated by transport Canada are eligible. I fall under the same supervision body.
I was wondering if anyone has got these points before .

Pasted the page below for your reference.

How can I get a certificate of qualification from a provincial, territorial or federal body for the Federal Skilled Trades Program?
In Canada, provinces and territories

• are in charge of education and training, including skilled trades apprenticeships
• usually decide on the standards and conditions used to assess and recognize foreign credentials for certain trades

The regulatory body that governs trades in a province or territory

• must assess your training, trade experience and skills
• decides if you are eligible to write an exam to be certified

To get a certificate of qualification, you

• will likely have to physically go to the specific province or territory to write the certification exam
• may need an employer in Canada to give you training and work experience before you are allowed to write the exam

If your trade is not regulated by a province or territory (for example, airplane mechanic), it may be federally regulated. The Canadian Information Centre for International Credentials provides information on credential assessment for all regulated trades in Canada.

Your NOC does not fall within the qualified NOC's that are able to claim points for a certificate of qualification.
