• Be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or convention refugee of Ontario at the time of application and be eligible to work in Canada
• Be an internationally educated professional in a technical area
• Have a baccalaureate degree equivalent to an Ontario university degree (i.e., an assessment of educational credentials made through a professional body or approved assessment agency in Ontario, such as World Education Services)

  • IELTS of 6.5; or

Admission requirements are determined through a thorough intake process which ensures that participants receive all necessary information, orientation, and guidance in order to plan their learning paths and prepare preliminary action plans.

The application and intake process will consist of an orientation and information session, a comprehensive one-on-one interview, and a language assessment.

Participants who are Canadian citizens, permanent residents, and convention refugees are eligible for the program. During individual interviews, candidates will be assessed on their suitability for the program, including relevant project management experience, academic credentials, and prior work experience.

Qualified candidates will be given in-depth language assessments to determine whether their Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) levels are sufficient for entry into the program. Candidates requiring further preparation will be referred to the appropriate internal and external service providers.
