You did hard work, followed the rules and got the best education you had access to. Want to continue to be successful. A good education is the key when you are searching something- a new challenge, a new opportunity, a new life in a foreign country, Canada. There is need of an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) in order to find how the education in your home country compares to one of the highest standards of education in the world
What Exactly is an ECA?
An Education Credential Assessment is the platform through which the education you obtained in your home country is being compared to Canadian standards. Firstly, It’s also being used in order to evaluate the validity of diplomas, degrees, certificates and other academic achievements. Secondly, It’s also used to assess whether your achievements are worth more, less, or the same as their Canadian counterparts.
Where Can
You Get an ECA?
ECA
can be crucial part of the process for applicants who wish to come to Canada
under the Express
Entry program. . As such, Immigration,
Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), the government department in charge of
immigration, only accepts them from designated organizations. Visit IRCC website in order to find out
the complete list of organizations certified to give ECAs.
It’s the right way to choose only that establishment that will be giving you your ECA based on your education. For instance, when you studied to be a doctor, your ECA must be granted to you by the Medical Council of Canada (MCC). When you go to the International Credential Assessment Service of Canada (ICAS) for evaluation of the same, it would be a waste of time and effort since these two organizations measure different types of education.
Who Needs an ECA?
There is no requirement for the specific criteria assessed when any person with Canadian educational achievements such as certificates, diplomas, degrees or any other valid proof of credentials. For instance, if you did your undergraduate degree at a Canadian university and then did a graduate degree at an Indian university, , only the graduate degree would be subject to an Educational Credential Assessment. This doesn’t mean that the Indian degree is questioned. It’s due to employers and Canadian officials will need to know how it compares to Canadian standards of education.
You
are required ECA when you have your sights set on Express Entry and the Federal Skilled Workers Program (FSWP) and you are educated outside of Canada. The
more points you have, the better your chances for gaining Canadian PR. You will
be required to get an Educational Credential Assessment when you want to
benefit from all of the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points. That’s not only for the principal
applicant. Based on your profile, it may also apply to your accompanying spouse
or common-law partner as well.
You Received an ECA – Now What?
Your
ECA report will give you insight into a few things. At first, you get better
evaluation of the validity of your credentials. Secondly, you’ll be able to
know if your academic achievements equate to the completed Canadian equivalent. It will be a advantageous thing to include it
in your Express Entry profile in order to boost your points when your foreign
credentials compare favorably to Canadian ones. Ensure to keep track of your
ECA reference number as it is crucial in retrieving pertinent information about
your academic history.
When you ECA reflects that your prior schooling does not add up to a completed Canadian credential, you can gain no points for it. It means that the Federal Skilled Workers Program (FSWP) isn’t the right program for you. But, no need to lose hope as there are many other programs that may be a better fit for you. It may be a slightly different path, but eventually all lead to the same end result, a new life in Canada!
