There are two ways majorly for NOC 2173 .
You can apply for the I.S.P. under the Education Plus Experience Route (
http://www.cips.ca/EdplusEx). Under this route you are required to have your official transcripts sent to us directly from your educational institutions, along with a
Canadian course-by-course equivalency assessment (assessment centers listed in application). If your course-by-course equivalency assessment indicates that they received your official transcripts directly from your school(s) then you can have the assessment center mail us an official copy of your assessment instead of having your school mail us your official transcripts.
Alternatively you can apply for the I.S.P. under the "Established IT Professionals Route" (
http://www.cips.ca/EstablishedITProfessionals), which is purely experience based, and would not require you to send your transcripts. Under this route you would document your knowledge and experience that you've gained over the years in the listed knowledge areas. You are not required to have experience in all knowledge areas, however your total points gained from the knowledge areas must be greater than 21 points. While you will be providing your personal opinion about the points you believe to have in each knowledge area, the CIPS Experience Review Committee will ultimately determine how many points you are assessed at.
If you are interested in obtaining just the ITCP I would recommend that you apply under the "Education Plus Experience" route (
http://www.cips.ca/ITCPEdPlusEx).
