WHAT IS A "RECOGNIZED POST-SECONDARY INSTITUTION"?

 

The Canadian Information Centre for International Credentials (CICIC) provides a database of Recognized Post-secondary Institutions in Canada. For more information, please visit the CICIC website or call 416-962-9725.

 

If you obtained your academic credentials outside Canada, CICIC will provide you with information on credential assessment services.

 

Only post-diploma (graduate) certificates meet the eligibility requirements. A post-diploma (graduate) certificate normally requires a degree or diploma to enter the program. If the educational institution does not specify that the post-diploma (graduate) certificate program requires a diploma or a degree, the certificate is not eligible.

 

A certificate is not the same as a post-diploma certificate and does not meet the eligibility criteria. Individuals should confirm the full title of their credential before applying to the program.
