Hey guys, i am new to this forum.
I am from Delhi and i was looking to apply for Express entry, but after i calculated my score using the tool provided on the CIC website my score was only 429(if i score CLB9 in IELTS). So i am thinking to undergo a 1 year diploma course from Delhi University or any other University in Delhi in order to increase my scores.
Can you guys guide me what course and what university i should choose so that it gets a positive ECA report.
I have done B.Tech(2013) in Electronics and Communication from MDU and having 3.5 years of experience.

Thanks in advance
 
Some ECA providers tend to discriminate as to where a degree / diploma was undertaken. Use the free evaluation tool before taking admission to ensure that the ECA provider will indeed consider your degree and diploma as the Canadian equivalent to give you the score for 2 or more degrees and not as 1 bachelors degree.
 
This means WES won't recognise your diploma and if you would be getting that diploma only to increase your score, it's probably not worth it. Getting a masters will increase your score too. Try other ECA providers.
 
This is what i got in mail from WES.

Credential 1
Country of Education: India
Name of Degree: Bachelor of Technology
Name of Institution: Maharshi Dayanand University
Equivalency in Canada: Bachelor's degree (4 years)

Credential 2
Country of Education: India
Name of Degree: Master of Computer Applications
Name of Institution: University of Delhi
Equivalency in Canada: Master's degree

I selected B.Tech in Credential 1 and Marster in Computer Applications as Credential 2 from University of Delhi.
The course name is PG Diploma in Computer Applications

A diploma is not a masters degree.

1 year PG diploma or a 6 month PG certificate can get additional points.
you need to get it done from an institute that is recognised by UGC, AICTE and if its online, thn by DEB as well.
