41.快速通道如何運用從語言測試和教育認證評估（ECA）獲取到的信息？
快速通道用多種方式運用信息。
填寫資料完成後，ECA會被用來檢測你是否達到Express Entry的標準。
在候選人有權進入Express Entry之前，資料會通過CRS評定，根據其語言成績，在加拿大教育機構學歷，以及通過完成ECA報告獲取的由加拿大移民局官方認可的國外教育機構的學歷。
備註：申請聯邦技術類移民，必須持有ECA。申請聯邦技工類移民，或者加拿大經驗類移民，ECA為可選項目。但是會幫助你在CRS教育中獲得更多的分數，提高從群中脫穎而出的幾率。
41. How does Express Entry use the information from language tests or an Education Credential Assessment (ECA)?
The Express Entry system uses the information in a number of different ways.
When you fill out your profile, the ECA is used (where applicable) to see if you meet the criteria to get into the Express Entry pool.
Before candidates can enter the Express Entry pool, all candidates’ profiles are awarded points through the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) based on their language scores and educational attainment from a Canadian institution or educational credential from a foreign institution that has been validated through an ECA report completed by an organization designated by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC).
Note: If you are hoping to apply to the Federal Skilled Worker Program, you must have an ECA. If you are hoping to apply to the Federal Skilled Trades Program or Canadian Experience Class, an ECA is optional, but it may help you earn more points for education on the CRS and improve your chances of being drawn from the pool.
42.是否必須持有ECA?
對於並未在加拿大受過教育，又想在有關聯邦技術移民的Express Entry里被考慮選出，ECA是必需要有的。
對於申請聯邦技工類移民和加拿大經驗類移民的候選人，ECA是可選的。但它對CRS中獲得的分數有幫助，進而提高被選中的幾率。
42. Do I need to get an Education Credential Assessment (ECA)?
An ECA is required for candidates in the Express Entry pool who wish to be considered for draws related to the Federal Skilled Worker Program, unless they were educated in Canada.
For candidates who are hoping to apply to the Federal Skilled Trades Program or Canadian Experience Class, an ECA is optional but may increase the points they receive on the CRS and improve their chances of being drawn from the pool.
43. ECA就意味着申請人的職業資格證在獲取管制行業許可證時是被認可的嗎？
不是。因為移民取得的ECA並不意味着工作經歷和職業資格證就會在加拿大取得管制行業許可證時自動被認可。如果屬於管制行業，還必須通過計劃定居的省或地區相關程序，以獲得許可證。監管當局通過對其資格證的評估和認證，來判定是否發放許可證。這其中包括教育評估，經驗或技能，和語言的熟練程度，以及其他一些要求。準備在管制行業工作的申請人，應該聯繫預計居住省份的監管當局。
43. Does an Education Credential Assessment (ECA) mean that an applicant’s professional credentials have been recognized to get a license in a regulated profession?
No. Getting an ECA for immigration does not mean that your work experience and professional credentials are automatically recognized in Canada to get a license in a regulated profession. If you work in a regulated profession, you must still go through the process of getting your license in the province or territory that you plan on settling in. Regulatory authorities determine an applicant’s readiness for licensure by assessing and recognizing “qualifications,” which may include an assessment of education, experience/competencies and language proficiency, in addition to other requirements. Applicants intending to work in a regulated profession should contact the regulatory authority in the province where they plan to live to find out more about how to obtain licensure.
44.什麼組織可以完成ECA或語言測試？
加拿大移民局選取了三個組織來評估所有國外的教育證書。
多倫多大學比較教育評估；
ICAS; 和
WES.
如申請：
——專科醫生（NOC3111），全科或家庭醫生（NOC3112），必須通過加拿大醫學會MCC做ECA。
——藥劑師（NOC3131），必須通過加拿大藥學研究董事會PEBC做ECA.
備註：此兩處專業機構（MCC和PEBC）所需ECA是由加拿大移民局指定，用於移民相關事宜，是行業的監管當局在整體認證過程中的一個要素。請聯繫計劃居住省份的監管當局，了解更多獲取許可的相關信息。
對於其他職業，瀏覽CIC除此之外的指定組織官網，或者直接與他們取得聯繫，以便了解哪個更適合自己的需要。參考一下幾點：
具有某些監管機構或者較大僱主的指定組織成員，這就意味着為了向CIC申請取得的ECA，以後還會對你有很大幫助。
44. What organizations can complete an Education Credential Assessment (ECA) or language test?
CIC has selected three organizations that can assess any foreign educational credential:
Comparative Education Service: University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies;
International Credential Assessment Service of Canada; and
World Education Services, Canada.
If you are applying:
as a specialist physician (NOC 3111) or general practitioner/family physician (NOC 3112), the Medical Council of Canada must do an ECA for your primary medical diploma;
as a pharmacist (NOC 3131), the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada must do your ECA.
Note: ECAs done by the two professional bodies designated by CIC (Medical Council of Canada and Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada) are used by CIC for immigration purposes and are recognized by the profession’s regulatory authorities as one component of their overall licensure process. Please contact the regulatory authority in the province where you plan to live for more information on the licensure process.
For any other occupation, check the websites of the other CIC-designated organizations or contact them directly to find out which one best suits your needs. Consider the following:
Some designated organizations partner with certain regulatory bodies or large employers. That means that the ECA you obtain for your application to CIC might also help you later on.
Check with each designated organization to find out what other organizations recognize their assessments.

45.取得ECA的花費是多少？
取得ECA的花費和時間是有差異的，具體參考指定組織官網信息。
45. How much does an Education Credential Assessment (ECA) cost?
The cost of an ECA and the length of time to get one vary. Find out more on the websites of the designated organizations.
46.什麼時候必須遞交語言測試成績或者ECA？
創建EE資料時，必須包含測試名稱和語言測試的最終成績。
如果在加拿大境外完成的學業，還必須列舉出ECA列表中等同於加拿大教育的項目。以及ECA的參考編號（有時也稱CIC編號）。如果受邀申請永久居民，會通過測試評估機構來核實給出的信息。
收到最新語言測試成績或ECA結果時，你需要及時更新資料。
備註：如果申請聯邦技術移民，需要ECA表明此國外教育證書等同於完成了一個加拿大文憑。如果申請聯邦技工類移民或者加拿大經驗類移民，ECA不是必需的。但是它能在CRS中獲得更多的分數，進而提高被選出的幾率。
如果已經拿到了ITA，在審核永久居民申請的過程中，可能需要更多關於結果的信息。
備註：申請永久居民需要的語言測試成績或者ECA會在發出機構進行確認。如果在過程中的任何一點上給出了有誤信息，你可能會被：
——因為造假禁止進入加拿大，並且
——五年內禁止申請永久居民身份。
46. When will I have to submit my language test results and/or Education Credential Assessment (ECA)?
When you create your Express Entry profile, you will have to include the test identifier and results score of your language test. If you completed your education outside Canada, you will also have to show what your (ECA) report lists as the equivalent Canadian education. You must also include the report’s reference number (sometimes known as the “CIC number”). We will verify the information you gave us with the testing/assessment organizations if you are invited to apply for permanent residence.
You should also update your profile any time you receive updated language test scores or ECA results.
Note: If you are hoping to apply to the Federal Skilled Worker Program, you must have an ECA that indicates that your foreign educational credentials are equivalent to a completed Canadian credential. If you are hoping to apply to the Federal Skilled Trades Program or Canadian Experience Class, an ECA is optional, but it may help you earn more points for the education component on the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) and improve your chances of being drawn from the pool
If you get an ITA, we may ask for more information about your results as we process your application for permanent residence.
Note: When you apply for permanent residence, your language tests and/or ECAs will be validated with the organization that issued them. If you give false information at any point in the process, you could be:
found inadmissible to Canada for misrepresentation; and
barred for five years from applying for permanent resident status.
47.語言測試成績和ECA的有效期是多長時間？
語言測試成績的有效期是兩年，通過EE取得永久居民遞交申請時必須有效。
ECA的有效期是五年，通過EE取得永久居民遞交申請時必須有效。
47. How long are language test and Education Credential Assessment (ECA) results valid for?
Language test results are valid for 2 years. They must be valid at the time an application for permanent residence under Express Entry is submitted.
ECAs are valid for 5 years and must also be valid at the time an application for permanent residence under Express Entry is submitted.
48.我的職業屬於管制行業，我在哪裡可以獲取如何取得授權的信息？
各省以及地區都有責任通過監管和學徒當局對管制的職業和貿易發放許可證。然而，因為所處地區的不同，許可證的發放就會有各種不同的要求。並且，某些職業並不是在每個省都屬於管制行業。
僱主也會提供給那些正在努力工作以拿到授權的未來移民者一個跟職業相關的工作邀請。
備註：如果你的職業在管制行業內，你必須通過計劃居住的省或地區的相關程序取得授權。ECA或者ITA的邀請並不能說明你的工作經驗和職業資格證書就會自動被加拿大所認可。
如果你計劃在加拿大從事管制行業的工作，應該儘快聯繫計劃居住省或地區的監管當局。他們會告訴你獲取授權的相關程序。
48. I work in a regulated/licensed profession. Where can I get information on how to get licensed in Canada?
Each province and territory is responsible for licensing regulated professions and trades through regulatory bodies and apprenticeship authorities. However, there may be different requirements for licensing depending on where you live. Also, some professions are not regulated in every province.
Learn more about the credential recognition process.
Employers may choose to make a job offer to a prospective immigrant for a related occupation while they work toward getting licensed.
Note: If you work in a regulated profession, you must go through the process of getting your license in the province or territory that you plan on settling in. An Education Credential Assessment (ECA) or an Invitation to Apply (ITA) does not mean that your work experience and professional credentials are automatically recognized in Canada.
If you plan to work in an occupation that is regulated in Canada, you should contact the regulatory authority in the province or territory where you plan to live as soon as possible. They can give you information about the process for being licensed.
49. EE如何改善想要從事管制行業新入者的獲取途徑？
作為加拿大政府在經濟移民系統改革中的一部分，國外資格認證的改進和認證的方法享有優先權。
隨着省以及地區之間合作的增長，監管當局和專業組織致力於提高獲取授權以及潛在移民來加拿大之前通過認證工具進行的進程。使移民者在國外資格認證時獲得優勢。
依據ECA，EE潛在候選人的國外教育證書是根據加拿大標準來評估和認證的。這就使得申請人的教育能夠更好的契合加拿大勞動力市場，幫助他們在移民和加拿大人生規划上作出更加明智的選擇。目前，有五家CIC指定機構為移民遞送ECA服務，包括兩家專業團體（MCC和PEBC）。並有更多的組織和專業機構將被指定接收這一服務。
備註：如果申請聯邦經驗類移民，需要ECA表明此國外教育證書等同於完成了一個加拿大文憑。如果申請聯邦技工類移民或者加拿大經驗類移民，ECA不是必需的。但是它能在CRS中獲得更多的分數，進而提高被選出的幾率。
EE中遞交用於申請永久居民申請的ECA，將在受理過程中到發證機構核實。
49. How will Express Entry improve the pathway for newcomers wanting to work in a regulated occupation?
As part of the reforms being made by the Government of Canada to its economic immigration system, improvements to foreign credential recognition (FCR) and the way credentials are recognized are being prioritized.
Increased collaboration with provinces and territories, regulatory authorities, and professional bodies is resulting in the development of steps to make their license and assessment tools accessible to potential immigrants before they come to Canada, giving immigrants a head start on the recognition of their qualifications.
Through an Education Credential Assessment (ECA), a potential Express Entry candidate’s foreign educational credentials are authenticated and assessed against Canadian standards. This allows applicants to have a better sense of how their education fits into the Canadian labour market and helps them make more informed choices about immigration and Canadian career paths. There are currently five organizations designated by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) to deliver ECA services for immigration purposes, including two professional bodies (Medical Council of Canada and the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada). Work is being done to add more organizations and professional bodies to the list of those designated to provide ECA services.
Note: If you are hoping to apply to the Federal Skilled Worker Program, you must have an ECA that indicates that your foreign educational credentials are equivalent to a completed Canadian credential. If you are hoping to apply to the Federal Skilled Trades Program or Canadian Experience Class, an ECA is optional, but it may let you earn more points for the education component on the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) and improve your chances of being drawn from the pool.
All ECAs included in an Express Entry profile will be validated with the issuing organization when an application for permanent residence is submitted for processing.
