Hello,
I own and operate a printing company. There are obviously no NOC codes for owners--the closest I can find are CEOs, but I am not a manager or supervisor, either. I am the owner! With this sort of thing, do I just find what closest? ie, what if I wasn't the owner, what would I qualify as? Like maybe I am 7303, a supervisor in printing and related occupations?

Thanks!

If you are not sure about your NOC, you can write to noc@workingincanada.gc.ca with your duties and responsibilities, they will let you know which NOC is the closest fit.

Omg! I have the exact same question that you have!
I own a printing business, but I feel that 7303 is not a perfect match for me. Please tell what NOC did you use? Im leaning towards 0015... but am I a senior? haha

Hello,

I know it's been a while but I'd like to know the NOC you eventually chose as I also own and run a printing business...also wanted to use 0016...but leaning more towards 0911...I only have 4 employees at present

Hi there. It is funny because I am in the same situation. I am creating an EE profile and wondering which NOC to put for the time I had my printing business. I am working in Canada in the NOC 7381 but I want to utilize my experience gained at home while having a printing company. Which code have you used?
