Credential Evaluation, Assessment and Qualification Recognition Services
All agencies and organizations listed below adhere to the General Guiding Principles for Good Practice in the Assessment of Foreign Credentials and the Recommendation on Criteria and Procedures for the Assessment of Foreign Qualifications adopted under the 1997 Lisbon Recognition Convention.
However, their assessments are not necessarily appropriate or applicable to all situations.
If you are planning to work in a regulated occupation, you will first need to consult with the pertinent regulatory body (see our occupational profiles at http://www.cicic.ca/403/occupational-profiles-for-selected-trades-and-professions.canada) since regulatory bodies are legally authorized to perform their own expert credential assessments.
If you are planning to study in Canada, consult our Fact Sheet #1 "Information for students educated abroad applying for admission to Canadian universities and colleges" at http://www.cicic.ca/392/admission-to-universities-and-colleges.canada since university and college registrars are legally authorized to perform their own expert credential assessments as well.
If you are not sure how you should proceed, contact us. We will assist you.
The icon identifies the provincially-mandated or provincially-recognized agencies, which make up the Alliance of Credential Evaluation Services of Canada (ACESC). The Alliance developed a Quality Assurance Framework, under which its members operate.
