CRS points for beeing Ontario registered Physiotherapist?

[neorol]

Hi all,

There were a few conversations about gaining extra CRS points for regulated professions like Physiotherapy as "certificate of qualification in a province".

Getting a Physiotherapy license is a long procedure, and without that nobody can work as a Physio. The license is issued by the Province. Common sense says this would be really something that should count as Skill transferability, however, I'm really not certain about it.

Anybody with similiar experience?

Thanks for your help!

I can't see any section in the CRS breakdown that a Physio Licence could be counted under in order to gain extra points.

IT's the question:

7) Do you have a certificate of qualification from a Canadian Province or Territory?

It specifically says that that is for Skilled trade occupations. Surely physiotherapy isn't a trade.

Thank you, I've just found a list of occupations too and Physiotherapy is not among them... :/
