Question about Quebec list of Qualifications and points in Training/education

[Zoultrex]

My fiance and I are applying for the Quebec Skilled worker, she has a 2 year diploma in Business Management and Marketing I wonder how many points would get in the education.
The diploma is awarded by an UK awarding body (edexcel.com) and first Im not sure if this diploma would be considered technical/college or university type diploma because its level is at the same time within college and university here in Ireland.

But what I really dont get is in regards to the document LISTE DES DOMAINES DE FORMATION (2009)

In the list above I can only see it at section B as Gestion de commerces (DEC - 3 ans)
and listed at section C as Administration des affaires (BACC. - 3 ans)

As it is not a bachelor and it is a Diploma issued by a college I believe that it would then refer to the one in section B?!


But then what about the fact that the course was a 2 year and not 3 years as it says in the pdf list in the link above?

Would that mean that according to the page here in candavisa website: canadavisa com/quebec-immigration-education.html
This diploma would then award in total 6 points by the rule:
Postsecondary school technical diploma attesting to 2 years of full-time studies 6 points

or would it award 22 points (in case it matches business management in section b) by the rules:
Postsecondary school technical diploma attesting to 2 years of full-time studies in training listed in Section A or B of the 'Areas of Training' criterion 10 points
Section B of the areas 12 points

This course was around 15 hours a week, so around 1000 hours in total for the two years, does that mean anything in special?

What matters the most to the canadian immigration, the duration of the course, the level in which the course is equivalent to(if there is such a thing)?

I wonder where I would get an "official answer" to this doubt that I have, maybe someone knows in immigration lawyer office that would be able to tell me whats my case...
Im afraid that this 2 year Business Diploma wont get us enough points and maybe it might be better to try to apply for the visa for the FSW program

Ah also, not sure if that matters but..., we are applying in the Brazilian office in Sao Paulo.

Im gonna stop right here so this post is not any bigger then what it already is I can provide more info in case I wanst very clear.

Thanks in advance

I believe I may have found the answer in regards to the diploma duration.

I found a guide for the equivalence of UK diplomas and there it says that the specific diploma that my fiance was awarded matches the 3 year college diploma in Canada, but im still going to check if thats going to be accepted by the immigration, I really hope that it will


To find whats the equivalence of your UK diploma you have to do the following:

If you hold a degree or diploma or cert from the UK (and I believe Rep of Ireland goes with it too) just google this:
"international education guides alberta"

I believe the first result will bring you to the correct page already which is the International Education Guides from the government of Alberta.
Scroll down the page and the UK is the last book.

All the books in this page were developed by the IQAS (International Qualifications Assessment Service) so I believe it is quite safe to refer to them.

But dont forget to double check with either an immigration lawyer or a Canadian equivalence institution of witht he immigration office itself if this guide will be valid to your case.
I will try to use this guide and will post here later if it worked or not, wish us luck and good luck you you too
