hi guys

after 84 days of waiting for an email from CIO, i finally received it ... but it turned out to be a veryyyyyy big disappointment :(

i got this :

"the main duties that you have listed do not indicate that you performed a substantial number of the main duties of the occupation as set out in the occupational description of the NOC, including all of the essential duties. As such, I am not satisfied that your experience corresponds to NOC 4131- College and Other Vocational Instructors."

well.... here what i do in my job:

I am an instructor at Fast Lane .. this company is a CLSP (Cisco Learning System Partner).. for anyone who dont know Cisco, Cisco is the biggest networking hadware vendor... its like Microsoft for software.. and they do have courses, exams, certificates...etc

so basically what we do in our company, we train people networking skills in order to get Cisco certificates (CCNA, CCNP, CCSP...etc)

our company is a global partner for cisco, we conduct courses in more than 40 countries (flane.com)

so what i basically do... full time conduct courses... from 9 to 5... i teach theory from 9 to 1.. then resume after lunch break with lab exercises ... some weeks i do preparing for new courses... thats it.. but my main main duty is teaching or training or instructing or delivering courses whatever u want to call it !!!

here what i wrote in my application:

From 2009 02
To 2010 02
Occupation Network Instructor
NOC 4131

Main duties

• Deliver Cisco courses to students using PowerPoint presentation style of lecturing - providing key concepts in networking fundamentals like subnetting, explaining in depth the theory of routing basics like EIGRP and OSPF routing protocols, teaching switching concepts like VLANS and trunking, teaching advanced Network Security courses like firewall, and give training on Enterprise level Network Management System (NMS) like CiscoWorks
• Carryout afternoon hands-on lab sessions for the students – supervising the students while they are doing their lab tasks and solving the problems they encounter
• Guide students into how to approach Cisco hierarchical certification scheme (Entry, Associate, Professional, Expert, and Architect) in terms of courses to take and exams to clear in order to fulfill their current/future career needs
• Work with the team lead for course quality improvement – conduct course evaluation towards the end of each course and try to improve on the weak points the evaluation shows
• Specialize in those main areas of Computer Networking: Routing & Switching, Service Provider, Network Management, and newly in Network Security
• Provide consultancy support for customers or other companies – help the customers to solve the issues they face in their network infrastructure.



well... sorry to say that... but i am not convinced how they are saying i didnt perform substential amount of main duties listed in the NOC..


Seniors please help.. am fed up with Canada.. i am trying with this immigration system since 2004 and seems i am having the worst luck on EARTH!!!!!!!.... i am seriously thinking now to go to Australia cause really i am tired and sick of this :((((((((

very sad news ......... :(

I think your Main duties are not match with the 4131 Catagory.

They required computer trainer not network trainer.


if you applied your case as a company trainer and not doing any deep dive in your mail duites.might be you are cleared.

I think its mistake from your side

yes penjabi.. i know.. i have seen it now.. and seen it before applying too...

ok.. the NOC supposed to include all the "recognized" jobs in canada, right?

so any "recognized" job in canada supposed to fall under some number in the NOC, right?

so i think we both agree that "network instructor" as a job is available in canada... and supposed to fall under one of the NOC codes out there, right?

so if u saying its not falling under NOC 4131, then under which code??

I have not found any NOC for network Instructor.
NOC 2281 might be correct for you network administrator.
