MY education does not match NOC "Employment Requirements"

[fouzi_ahs]

Hi All,

I am planning to apply under NOC"21310 – Electrical and electronics engineers ". I have a bachelor degree in science "physics" in Canada but the NOC employment requirements requires:

• A bachelor's degree in electrical or electronics engineering or in an appropriate related engineering discipline is required.

Would this cause a refusal to my application? Thanks

Not for Express Entry.

Applying under canadian experience class is considered Express Entry, correct?

Yes. There haven’t been specific CEC draws in years just open draws. CEC is included under open draws.

Also, could you please send me a link that mentions that we do not have to meet employment requirements? (If you have any)
Thank you so much for your help, it gave me a huge relief.

Thanks

For EE, education doesn’t need to meet NOC. Read the CEC requirements.

Where I can find the Cec requirement page to verify education match is not mandatory

Top of this page:
it says:
The employment requirements listed in the National Occupational Classification (NOC) description are not applicable.
