Hi,

My brother is applying for Express Entry, he is having 2 diplomas of 2 year each. Is it comes under only 1 "Two-year program at a university, college, trade or technical school, or other institute". Is there any chance he ll get additional points of 2nd two year diploma.
Thanks

I have a B.Tech (4 hrs) and a Post graduate certificate in Information Security from IGNOU. I checked the following link

"www wes org/educators/pdf/indiapolicypacket.pdf " and it has below mentioned on page 15

"Postgraduate Diplomas (PGDip) within the university sector almost always require a minimum of a bachelor’s degree for admission. However, this may not be the case with non-university institutions. Programs range from six months to two years, although most require one year of full-time study. PGDip programs are generally professionally oriented. The Association of Indian Universities recognizes Post Graduate Diplomas in Management (PGDM) from a small number of non-university institutions as equivalent to an MBA from an Indian university. "

Would this also mean that 6 months PG certificate can also fetch me points. Has anyone applied and experienced it? Please assist!

Dear(s),

I am a mechanical engineer having wes evaluation of 4 years bachelor program. I am also enrolled in a Distance learning Masters Program. I have completed Post Graduate Diploma level. My transcript is stating that i am eligible for post graduate diploma. As i did not exit the program and continued my MSc, i did not get degree certificate of post graduate diploma. I have a transcript and i can get letter from university stating i am eligible for post Graduate Diploma. In this case can i get wes evaluation of post graduate degree??

Hello Everyone !
Please free to re-direct me in-case I should be looking in some different thread/topic.
I have a Diploma (3Yrs after 10th Std) from Autonomous Tech. Institute in Pune and a 2yr MBA from Tripura University
Please Note: - I have skipped 12th Std. After 10th Std, I opted for a 3Yr Diploma in Mechanical Engineering
Therefore, my total years of education is 15 Yrs:-
10 std + 3 yr Diploma + 2 Yr MBA
Could anyone please advice me on what would be my ECA result ? Will it be "Masters" or "2 or more Certificates / Diploma"

Thanks in advance
Awaiting your reply
Cheers!

okay but the EE online application does not allow you to select "two or more" any more. So if somebody has a post secondary certificate and a 3 years bachelors , what options can we select? if we select "bachelors" for one row of education and select "one year" for another row, will the system calculate crs against "two or more" automatically post submission?

Please advise if anyone encountered first hand experience.
