Can my Canadian university School of Continuing Studies certificate + 4-year bachelor’s degree count as “two or more credentials” for Express Entry?

[Yoolando]

Hi everyone,


I have:

• a 4-year bachelor’s degree
• a continuing studies certificate from a Canadian university

The certificate was:

• officially awarded by the university
• based on completion of required courses
• shown on the official transcript
• supported by a completion letter from the university

For Express Entry, would this likely count as “two or more post-secondary credentials”, assuming the bachelor’s degree is the credential that meets the 3 years or more requirement?


My concern is whether IRCC would accept the continuing studies certificate as the second post-secondary credential.


Has anyone had a similar situation or seen cases like this?

No CEs don’t typically count as degrees. They are typically just for personal/career growth and anyone can take them.
