Job Offer........
Pre-Assessed..
I have sent my documents to WES for evaluation and the status is documents under review..however my question is the evaluation report which I would get from WES is valid or not as I heard for a pharmacy graduate evaluation should be done from pEBC and not WEC. I m not going to apply as pharmacist since I m working in clinical research field. Moreover I have completed B pharm and m pharm so both will be countested or only b pharm wil be considered for evaluation.

Hi everyone,

I am exactly in the same situation as Rahul. I want apply as a clinical research professional and I have studied M.Pharm and B.Pharm from India.I am confused as to where to apply for credential assessment- PEBC or WES? I want to claim points for my Master degree also however PEBC does not assess Master degree.

Could anybody please guide me quickly? That would be very helpful as I have to hurry up the Educational credential process.

Thanks in advance.

What is PEBC? Is that an ECA?

It's The Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada, which kind of does ECA as well, but is more than that. Below website can give you more info.

Ok.
There are 2 types of assessment- one for immigration (WES, IQAS, ICAS) and others for professional as you mentioned. So even though you are engineer, doctor or teacher if you are going for immigration one has to get ECA from ones designated by IRCC such as WES and others. The professional assessment does not goes with immigration assessment. Hope this helps.
