How WES Can Help You Migrant Abroad 

World Education Services (WES) is created for refugees, Citizenship Canada (IRCC), and immigrants coming to North America and Canada.  The body offers to provide Educational Credential Assessments (ECAs) on degrees and diplomas received outside of Canada. If you are an African coming to Canada, you need WES ECA for a better opportunity when you relocate to Canada.

What Can WES ECA Do For You?

Pharmacists and physicians can easily meet IRCC immigrant program requirements with WES.

  • You can meet the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) requirements, especially if you want to use the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program.

  • It helps you qualify for IRCC’s Agri-Food Immigration Pilot.

  • You gain recognition for your education to make it easier to follow your dreams when you relocate to Canada.

  • You can store your verified education documents and WES ECA report for future use.

When you get your WES ECA report, you can use it for five years from the day you issued the report. You do not need to submit all your credentials. You submit your highest earned credentials for assessment. However, this comes with some exceptions.

How WES Can Help You Relocate Abroad

The WES evaluation process for every candidate is as follows:

  • Submit your application.

  • Submit your documents.

  • WES verifies your credentials, creates your report, and delivers it to your recipients.

 Before the verification is done, you must have completed your payment through apps like Pay4Me, Western Union, and other payment options.

You get a WES reference number after you submit your application. The reference number helps you track your records.  You must follow the WES document requirements for your country or territory of education.

If verification is needed, WES sends copies of documents to the university you attended with a request that they authenticate your documents.  Employers, professional licensing bodies, academic institutions, and government agencies trust the WES ECA report. 

How WES Evaluates Converts Your Credentials into the U.S./ Canada Equivalency

Agencies make use of different resources and research tools to determine your academic achievements, and the status of the school you attended in Africa with the Canadian or the U.S. system standards of education.

Not everyone recognizes the WES ECA reports. The evaluation reports are simply advisory and do not bind on institutions.  That means the school you are applying for may decide not to use the report.  For some institutions, even if they recommend or require the WES service they can decide to make the final decision on your admission. 

How WES Report Can Help You Abroad

WES applicants have different ways to use their reports. They can use it for immigration, licensing, employment, and education. Thousands of government, licensing, business and educational institutions recognize this report in the U.S and Canada.

To stand out with your credentials abroad, you need to make use of WES ECA to give your credentials the equivalent of the U.S and Canada's educational standards.
