Hi

My first question is about processing times. I have a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from an American University and have applied through IQAS assessment as I thought it will take less time than WES. Is that actually true?

My second questions is about professional certifications such Certified Solidworks professional or Matlab etc. (primarily for software and such). Do they count towards two post secondary certificates? If so then which is the best agency to get them assessed from?

I will be extremely grateful for any help.

As far as I am aware, things like software company certificates are not considered... They often give those away for simply attending a course. They are not formal education documents.

You cannot claim them as secondary certificates. This sort of tells you what qualifies.
