I had a bad experience with WES. Following is my report from WES:

Country of Education: India

1. Bachelor of Engineering: properly evaluated
Canadian equivalent: 4 year bachelors.

2. 2 year Post graduate diploma in Finance(Distance learning) from Welingkar institute of management and development(Mumbai)
WES say Course is from Non-Recognised institution.

I checked all the details on UGC-DEB.... This course is very well recognised and accredited by UGC-Distance Education bureau.

I wrote multiple emails to WES but they didn't budge and final said, "Course might be recognised but there is no Canadian equivalent "

My First Question to all:

Does Canada not have distance learning 2 year post graduate programs?

What can be alternate option to get it evaluated properly and get atleast some canadian equivalent?

I entered into EE pool in june 2017 and my CRS is 412.
My problem is I'm losing 32 points on CRS score because of it. Please help

I am going to have the same issue. Distance MBA from ADTU. I will go with ICAS or IQAS or ICES, the latter two i got from reading this forum. Did my degree evaluation through ICAS and got 4 years equivalent for BHMS. Took more than 3 months but satisfactory result. My current Crs is 398.

Finally, received the 2nd email from IQAS about the delivery of the academic documents after 7 weeks. Really hoping to speed up the process.

Wat I've noticed is that, IQAS 2nd email confirmation takes long time to come.....Is there a pattern?

I received my 1st email confirmation within three weeks but 2nd email confirmation, 4 weeks, still the wait continues.....

My first document package was delivered on 18/09/2017 and received the confirmation on 7/10/2017.

My second package was delivered on 21/09/2017 but no confirmation. I'm not sure why it takes so long for the second email confirmation.

This is the worst service I have ever seen. To be honest, IQAS is worst than anything. I think the departments in Pakistan can work better than IQAS.
