http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/eca-conversion.asp Please what credentials do I need to get assessed by WES. I am currently filling my express entry page and had my undergrad and masters degrees already certified by WES. Do you think i need to send my WAEC for assessment as well? I am new to this forum and confused about the whole thing. |
