@Tashasiq - I need your help here. My WES report is very similar to yours. Did WES make changes to your report? And, finally, what option did you proceed with?
@nt13 - please advise as well.
You can enter both your credentials in the EE profile. The system will automatically consider it as "Two or more degrees".
You must have ECA for both the degrees (shouldn't matter even if both degrees aren't mentioned in the top summary of your report, so long as both the degrees / credentials have Canadian Equivalency and are from a Recognized Institute). I see no harm in taking the shot that way.

WES isn't addressing such requests these days to provide the revised reports, however no harm in trying. It took 4-5 requests from me to get the revised reports (just to mention it in the top line summary).

Hope this helps. Good Luck!

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 ....

Hello.. What the response you received from WES on your PGP program with GLIM, was it accepted as "Two or more certificates, diplomas or degrees"?

In my case,WES didn't respond at all.But IRCC considered it as one year course.So i got the points for Two or more degrees.Your evaluation should say "
completion of an executive management program offered by a graduate school of business" and your institution should be recognized.comple tion of an executive management program in CIC terms mean one year course.So if WES evaluation says so,then you should be good.

Hello Janardhan,

Thank you for your prompt response. I have joined the Facebook group as advised but I haven't received any concrete response yet. Would you recommend I go ahead and create my EE Profile and claim points for Two or more degrees without waiting for WES to update my Summary as I already have a 4 Years bachelors. From my understanding of what I read on some previous threads, is that as long as your degree has an ECA of Executive Management Program from a Recognized University, you can claim points irrespective if WES missed adding it to the summary. I just wanted to clarify before my creating my profile to avoid any misrepresentation as it is in no way fault of ours if WES made an error my not adding it to the summary and now they don't reply and accept requests to edit the summary. Since you have a first hand account as you have successfully claimed points for a similar degree, I hope you will be able to advise. MY ECA from WES is as follows. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank You.

Hi Guys,
Need some urgent help here..
I got my WES ECA Report today. PFA the screenshot for the same.

In my WES Report , Canadian Equivalency Summary says "Bachelor's Degree (4 years)".
Although I have submitted 2 degree certificates and both have Canadian Equivalency mentioned in the Report.

CANADIAN EQUIVALENCY SUMMARY
Bachelor's degree (four years)
CREDENTIAL ANALYSIS
1. Name on Credential: XXXXX
Credential authentication: Documents were verified by the institution
Country: India
Credential: Bachelor of Technology
Year: 2012
Awarded by: Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT)
Status: Recognized Institution
Major: Mechanical Engineering
Canadian equivalency: Bachelor's degree (four years)

2. Name on Credential: XXXXXX
Credential authentication: Documents were sent directly by the institution
Country: India
Credential: Executive Programme
Year: 2020
Awarded by: Indian Institute of Management, Kolkata
Status: Recognized Institution
Major: Operations Management
Canadian equivalency: Completion of an executive management program offered by a
graduate school of business


Shouldn't the Canadian Equivalency Summary mention "Two or more certificates, diplomas or degrees. One must be a program of 3 or more years".
OR
Bachelor's Degree (4 years) and Completion of an Executive Management Program offered by a graduate school of business.

Can someone help me with the Correct steps on how to get this rectified from WES ?
