Hi Precious,
Check it out here as quoted from Page-19 of OP6 [FSW Overseas Manual]:
Credential and number of years of education.......... Points

applicant has no trade or apprenticeship educational credentials 0

One year post-secondary educational credential, other than a university
credential, and at least 12 years of completed full-time or full-time equivalent
studies......... 12
One year post-secondary educational credential, other than a university
educational credential, and at least 13 years of completed full-time or full-time
equivalent studies......... 15
One year university educational credential at the bachelor’s level, and at least 13
years of completed full-time or full-time equivalent studies 15
Two year post-secondary educational credential, other than a university
educational credential, and at least 14 years of completed full-time or full-time
equivalent studies......... 20
A university educational credential of two years or more at the bachelor’s level,
and at least 14 years of completed full-time or full-time equivalent studies 20
Three year post-secondary educational credential, other than a university
educational credential, and at least 15 years of completed full-time or full-time
equivalent studies......... 22
Two or more university educational credentials at the bachelor’s level and at
least 15 years of completed full-time or full-time equivalent studies 22
University educational credential at the master’s or doctoral level and at least 17
years of completed full-time or full-time equivalent studies......... 25
Example: 1.
If an applicant has a master’s degree, but only 16 years of education, an officer would go
down to the category for which the applicant meets the total number of years and, using this example,
award 22 points;
Example: 2.
If an applicant has a four-year bachelor’s degree and 16 years of education, an officer
would award 20 points, as a single two, three, or four-year university credential at the bachelor’s level,
combined with at least 14 years of full-time study, is worth 20 points;
