    Hi everyone!!

    Ok, Im not sure if this is the right board, but Im looking for some guidance!

    I am a Canadian citizen. I am currently STILL in College IN Canada and will graduate next April. I just got off the phone with someone from qqi who told me (without seeing my documents) he believes my qualifications would be equal to a level 6. It appears that MOST employers in my field are looking for level 7. Does anyone have any idea on how I upgrade to be equal to a level 7? I am hoping to move to Ireland by next summer at the latest and can not move until I have a job (as I need them to sponsor me).
    Im feeling a little lost and confused!

    Any help or suggestions would be great!!

    Thanks in advance

    It depends on what your qualification is. Can you give us more information?

    University can be extremely expensive here for non EU citizens but we maybe able to guide you in the right direction.
