I am in a similar situation. For #3 (on my report below) it says "Completion of an executive management program offered by a graduate school of business" but in Summary it says "Bachelor's degree (four years)". What should I select for # 3? Please advice

I've read through the CIC site at the right link but couldn't get a firm answer

So is " completion of an executive management program offered by a
graduate school of business" along with bachelors degree as good as getting two or more degrees, diplomas and certificates???

I do have a similar query : I did BTECH (4 year) in 2002 and I am pursuing Post Graduate Program in Business Analytics ( 1 year deemed as certificate course) from Great lakes Institute Of Management.

So - should it be treated as -
Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees.
OR
Bachelor’s degree or other programs (three or more years) at a university, college, trade or technical school, or other institute\

Looking for your response ....

It depends on WES report. Most likely it would be 2 or more degrees and certificates.....
Even if it says bachelors degree and a graduate program in management, it’s still 2 or more degrees.....

Hello Friends,

I have similar case, Have you filed EE and got your visa process.. As I was reading Conversion table, there is NO mentioned of executive management program offered by a graduate school of business

Lets hear from people, who have actually selected 2 or more Degrees/diplomas/ cetificate option and has been successfully awarded PR.

Fellas,

I am in a similar situation. Is anybody responding here? @viralsagar20 @vdassani @Prabal Ghosh .... anybody who has taken the option for this as 2 or more certificates / diplomas / degrees...and has been able to sail to the application.

This is getting desperate as I have just jumped on the back of WES report from 402 to 434 and this means a lot in the coming days.

Can someone clarify here?/

TIA!!

Hello folks,

I am just about getting started with the expression of interest.

I did my engineering followed by the executive MBA at IIFT.

My Wes evaluation has been pretty much same except the fact that the CANADIAN EQUIVALENCY SUMMARY
Bachelor's degree (four years) only lists this.


Should I write to WES to reconsider and if they can send a revised report? Does emailing them help?

Thanks vdassani. Just curious to know how you concluded that it is 'Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees.' I am struggling to find a reference in CIC website that mentions about 'Executive management program'. Do I need to provide any additional evidence to clarify this?
Hey buddy,
What option did you finally select ? Did you go ahead with the process ? What's the current status of your application ? Can I get your mobile number to discuss this ? Thanks in advance
