Hi,

My WES report says-

Canadian Equivalency Summary: Two bachelor's degrees (four years)

1. Bachelor of Science (Honours)- Candian Equivalency: Bachelor's degree (four years)
2. ACCA- Candian Equivalency: Bachelor's degree (four years)

Can I choose "Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees." as my education level and claim points accordingly?

Thanks for helping me out.

Base on my knowledge and information that I have gathered from CIC EE and CIC Help Center and WES, YOU CAN if in the summary it says Two Bachelor! I am doing the same as my spouse have 3y bachelor and 4y bachelor equivalency from WES.

How many points were added to you? Let's update each other and see if we will pass the assessment when we get an invite so that we will get passed this Two or more degrees confusion.

I have two following post secondary qualifications:

1-Two years Bachelors of Arts (Pass) = Equivalent to two years Associate degree from Canadian University (ECA done & Assessed by CES)

followed by

2-Three years Bachelors of Arts (Hons) Business Administration=Equivalent to four years Canadian Bachelor degree (ECA done & Assessed by WES)

EE system is not calculating points for my above two post secondary qualifications correctly.

Since I have entered "two or more post-secondary diplomas or degrees" level for both of my qualifications in my EE profile but still it is not working.

Please guide.

You have to choose two or more ..... option in both the fields in EE profile . Both in Level of Education in the top of the page and also at the bottom where it says ECA result.

I hope this helps

I am also following your lead. As an Australian and a Canadian CA, till now I thought my Australian CA was a 'designation' which was not a 'Diploma' or 'Certificate'. A fellow forum member then sent me this link which shows it appears to be a 'Graduate Diploma'.

http://www.charteredaccountants.com.au/Candidates/The-Chartered-Accountants-Program/Graduate-Diploma-of-Chartered-Accounting.aspx

The forum member also then suggested to send the documents to WES and see what comes back. I sincerely hope however it comes back with the same result as in the website link.

I have seen a few other posts where designations such as 'ACCA' , 'CPA' etc come back with an ECA of 'Bachelors Degree'. Whatever result WES send me I will post it here in the hope it may benefit fellow forum members.

I went to a college for 2 years program and finished it in one year and got a diploma. After that I transferred to a university as a third year student and graduated with bachelor degree.

Am I eligible for two or more certificates? which one am I supposed to choose in express entry profile? Can anyone help me with it?

did you get anywhere with this? i'm in the same boat and don't know what to put it as!

Dear All,

Need a clarification on the following point please,

I just received my report which is stating Canadian Equivalency Summary of "Bachelor's Degree (four years)". However, I provided the following two degrees, and was expecting an evaluation of "Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees. One must be for a program of three or more years":

1- Member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants - Individually assessed as "Bachelor's degree (four years)" in the same report.

2- Bachelor of Science - Individually assessed as "Bachelor's degree (four years)"in the same report.

Can you please let me know, what went wrong and if anything needed from my side to get this evaluation of both degree.

Best regards,
