How are international credentials evaluated?
How does a degree or diploma from Shanghai or Bogota measure up to one from The University of Western Ontario?
Many employers wrongly assume that immigrants are not well educated, yet never take a closer look at educational credentials to understand how they measure up. Indeed, one of the greatest barriers for employers in hiring newcomers, is finding a way to accurately assess the applicant’s education, skills and experience.
World Education Services (WES), a leading evaluation service in North America, is the service authorized by the government of Ontario to provide credential evaluation services for immigrants. For a fee, WES will provide a service designed to reassure you of the authenticity of credentials, as well as showing how international credits and grades compare with Canadian credentials.
