NOC: Canada’s list of skills for immigration

Currently, the Government of Canada builds many immigration programs to attract investment and labor force for this country. However, to carry out immigration review, you must go through an assessment process based on Canada’s list of skills for immigration – NOC. So what is the NOC? All information about this list will be updated by Le Immigration Group in the following article.

What is the NOC?

The National Occupational Classification (NOC) is a system used by the Government of Canada to assess and classify occupations. These occupations are assessed and classified into several groups in the NOC based on the type of work the worker is doing and their position in that job.

Most immigration programs of Canada use NOC as the basis for assessing the work experience of candidates applying for immigration. Whenever applying for immigration, applicants are required to determine their work experience by indicating a NOC code that matches their working experience.

Choosing the right NOC code is one of the most important parts of making an immigration application. If you choose a NOC that doesn’t match your experience, your immigration application may be returned or denied.

The NOC is updated every 5 years by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC). So stay updated for the most suitable NOC code.
