This book will provide you with an example of the alternate submission which is required if you believe that you are proficient in English and therefore do not wish to take the IELTS.)

If your points are short for becoming eligible for immigration under the point system, then you will find all the available job search tools and resources in this book which will enable you to register online with thousands of Canadian and American recruiting agencies and employers for free that could result in a job offer and subsequently the 10 points towards your eligibility.

If you do not have a degree or diploma and cannot qualify for the Canadian immigration under point system yet have a 1-2 years of apprenticeship and experience in your trade with good English or French language ability, then you can apply for a Temporary Work Permit to work in Canada by securing a job offer through this job search guide. Canada issues about 90,000 temporary work permits every year which can be obtained in 3 to 6 months time. Temporary Work Permit holders could be eligible for Canadian immigration with their families after working for a certain period of time in Canada.

From the Inside Flap
Finding employment in Canada requires planning. You should learn as much as possible before you apply to immigrate. Be aware that there is no guarantee that you will find a job and be able to work in your preferred occupation.

Regulated and Non-Regulated Occupations
Some professions and trades are regulated in Canada to protect public health and safety. Twenty percent of people working in Canada, such as nurses, engineers, electricians and teachers, work in regulated occupations.
Provincial and territorial organizations are responsible for:
Setting entry requirements for people in individual occupations;
Recognizing credentials, training or experience; and
Issuing licences required to work in regulated occupations.
The way to have your qualifications recognized is different in each province and territory, and for each occupation. In most cases, you can only apply to have your qualifications recognized once you are in Canada. You may be asked to:
Provide documentation of qualifications;
Take a language test;
Complete a technical exam (with applicable fee); and do supervised work.

Non-regulated Occupations
If your occupation is not regulated, you do not need a licence. Your employer will decide what requirements you must meet and if you need to register with a professional association.

Information For Foreign-Trained Medical Doctors
Information on requirements to practise
Those who practise this profession use one of the following titles: doctor, medical doctor, physician, family physician, general practitioner, or resident-in-training for one of these roles. Entry into the professions is regulated in Canada. This means that the requirements to practise are set by each provincial and territorial medical association. Once you know where you will settle and work in Canada, contact the appropriate provincial/territorial medical association (see list below) to obtain further information.
Information for Graduates of Foreign Medical Schools
If you immigrate to Canada through the Family Class or Refugee categories without regard to occupation, you must sign a statement that you have been fully informed of the difficulties you will encounter in obtaining a licence to practise medicine.
Before your application for immigration can be approved, your basic medical knowledge must be evaluated. In most cases, this means that you must pass the Medical Council of Canada's Evaluating Examination (MCCEE). This examination evaluates your general medical knowledge compared to that of graduates of Canadian medical schools. It tests your understanding of the principal fields of medicine - including internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, psychiatry, preventive medicine and community health, and surgery. Most of the questions are intended to evaluate clinical knowledge, but there are some questions on basic medical sciences.
The examination is held twice yearly, usually in March and September, in various centres in Canada and abroad. It is given in English and in French. Before you are eligible to write the Evaluating Examination, you must complete all the requirements to obtain qualification of Doctor of Medicine, or equivalent, from the university that granted your medical degree.

Some provinces have pre-residency training for permanent residents of the province who are graduates of foreign medical schools. The contents and length of the program varies in these provinces. For specific details, contact the provincial/territorial licensing authority.
In 2001, only 15.5 per cent of graduates of foreign medical schools who applied to CaRMS were successful in obtaining a postgraduate medical position. Of the 1219 postgraduate training positions in the 2001 match, only 60, or 5 per cent, of the positions were matched to graduates of foreign medical schools.
Information on assessment of qualifications
Contact the Medical Council of Canada for assessment of your qualifications prior to arrival in Canada.

Customer Reviews

Save your time
I bought the 2nd edition ( ISBN:0973455187 ) of this book. I really love it, especially the step-by-step sequence of it. I would say that even I do have the broadband internet connection but if I would be searching for the information that I have found in this book, It would have cost me at least $1000/- worth of my time. If you are looking to migrate to Canada then this book will be a smart start that can save you $$$$$ and time. Its a to-the-point resource.

Impressive publication
This is the latest and 2nd edition of this book. Over 450 pages, jam packed with information for almost everything we want to know. A must buy guide if you are planning your future in Canada.
