If you received education outside of Canada and plan to apply for permanent residence through Express Entry, you will likely need <\/span>Educational<\/strong> Credential<\/strong> Assessment<\/strong> (ECA<\/strong>)<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

10 key facts:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. ECA confirms authenticity<\/strong> of foreign diploma and establishes its equivalence<\/strong> to Canadian educational programs. If you studied in Canada, ECA is not required.<\/li>\n
  2. ECA is only applicable to academic degrees<\/strong>. ECA does not apply to trade qualifictions, language courses, licences, non-credit programs, etc.<\/li>\n
  3. Processing times depend on your educational institution<\/strong> and the specific organization conducting the assessment.<\/li>\n
  4. ECA report is valid for 5 years<\/strong>. It must be valid both at the time of receiving the invitation (ITA) and at the time of application (eAPR). If the report has expired, it might be possible to order a report duplicate, duplicate<\/strong>, which will be valid for another 5 years. For example, WES offers such service.<\/li>\n
  5. ECA report must be\u00a0 "for immigration purposes"<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  6. The report must indicate that the diploma is equivalent to a completed<\/strong> level of education. If only the number of years is indicated, it is considered as not completed<\/strong> education and does not award points in Express Entry.<\/li>\n
  7. To receive points for two or more certificates\/diplomas, you must do an assessment<\/strong> of each degree earned outside Canada. Exception: If your highest degree is a Master's or Doctorate, the assessment of that degree alone is sufficient.<\/em><\/li>\n
  8. Some diplomas (pharmacist, doctor, architect) are assessed through professional organizations<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  9. If you want to receive points in Express Entry for your partner's education, you will need ECA<\/strong>. However, if you already have enough points<\/strong>, ECA is not mandatory.<\/li>\n
  10. Approve companies by IRCC<\/strong> to conduct ECA:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
