Gettign Irish qualifications/degree assessed for EE visa?

seachto7 · 2015-05-13 09:15:51

Hi all, Just wondering what is the best way of going about this? I'm not too sure what to do? Do I have to get in touch with Canadian organisations to get them to assess any qualifications?

Yes you need to use WES or ICAS. Most people use WES as the turnaround time is slightly faster, though there are stories going around that WES may be undesignated by CIC (there is some inconsistency between ICAS and WES assessments)+.

The procedure for them is roughly similar, you send in a copy of your degree/diploma and you give the college authorisation to send your transcripts directly to WES/ICAS.

AH ok, I will look into this. I'd like to get it right.

Getting my work experience together will be the hard part!
