Speech therapist/ Audiologist immigrating to Canada

[Kiran90]

For immigration, not mandatory.

Hello,
Are there any speech therapists or audiologists who have immigrated to Canada or are now going through the immigration process?
I am a speech therapist and audiologist from Israel. As i understand, in order to work in Canada there is a minimum requierment of a master's degree. But what about immigration? Do i also need a master's degree for that?
Thank you.

PR is your path. Unfortunately You will not get a work visa because you aren’t licensed as a SLP. Check SLP provincial associations like Ontario to see how your degree and experience can be assessed. If your CRS score is too low can improving your IELTS or getting 3 years work experience help your CRS score.

@Naturgrl Thanks for the reply. As of now my CRS score is 432. I got overall 8 in IELTS. I ll take IELTS again but then even if it improves it wont cross beyond 450. I heard it should be 470 and above to be in the high probability list. As you suggested I should focus on increasing my work experience in case of Express Entry.

Get 3 years experience and if you are under 30, you may have enough points.
