Canada Clarifies Foreign Credential Assessment Process
For individuals relocating to Canada with professional qualifications, this means their foreign credentials will undergo a formal assessment and recognition process, and resources are available to help them find employment.
New information details the process for foreign-trained workers seeking employment in Canada. Individuals, particularly those in regulated occupations such as engineering and medicine, are required to have their international education and work experience assessed and recognized.
This assessment is conducted by federal and provincial/territorial bodies and may necessitate additional certification. To assist foreign job seekers, a resume builder and a job bank are available to facilitate connections with Canadian employers.
