Send it to ICES or IQAS. These two organizations are specifically instructed by IRCC to evaluate specialized certifications. However your certificate must be at least one year long course along with a Bachelors or 3 or more years program to receive points for two or more after ECA.

I would not surprised if wes does not specify the duration of the program. In that case you would not be able to select level of education. Please check below and click on "footnotei" on the similar credential like your. You will read the message about to evaluate this program through ices or iqas!

Hi,
1. Can I take Pearson BTEC level 4, 5 and then level 7 extended diploma (all through distance learning)?
2. Can I use them all for Canadian immigration purposes?
3. What will be the evaluation? I know its not in someone's hand but still I am applying online altogether, will the same start and end date be accepted for 2-year programs in Express Entry Canada?
4. They are vocational diplomas. Will they count as educational experience?
5. If I complete in less than a year but 120 credits each, will it be counted as 1 year study program?

Please, I am looking forward to your replies. Thanks in advance :)

Correct me if I’m wrong, a postgraduate certificate or diploma of any duration is acceptable as long as the bachelor degree is 3 or more years and both postgraduate and undergraduate designations were awarded by WES recognized institutions

If hope someone can help me on this subject.
I’m trying to get points for EE.
I’ll be applying soon for an online Canadian certificate in Business Administration to be able to chose 2 or more certificates or diplomas and earn extra points when asked if one of them was given by a Canadian university or college.

Would an online certificate be counted as Canadian certificate? Would I be able to answer yes to that question and gain the extra points?
