Did you notice how Skill Transferability Factors work? No? Meet Daniel.
Daniel has strong English (CLB 12) and French (NCLC 10), 2 years of foreign work experience as an administrative assistant, and 1 year of Canadian work experience ☝️ but only a high school diploma.
His CRS score: 428.
Then he completed a one-year diploma in Canada. The diploma increase his Core / Human Capital education points and allowed his education to work together with his strong language skills and Canadian work experience under Skill Transferability Factors — plus, in this example, he received additional points for Canadian post-secondary education.
One-year diploma increased points from 30 to 90
Education (language + education) = 25
Education (Canadian work experience + education) = 25
Post-secondary education in Canada = 15
The result?
CRS 428 → 553.
By pursuing a one-year diploma in Canada, Daniel was able to increase his score by 125 points.
That’s why your strategic question shouldn’t only be: ‘How can I get more CRS points?’ It should also be:
‘What could change if I optimize the credentials I already have – or add the right one?’
That’s exactly what we can explore during a professional consultation.
