The easiest way to get Canada permanent residence PR as an early childhood educator and assistant (NOC 4214) is through a provincial nomination program or provinces in Canada that currently have NOC 4214 Early childhood educators and assistants as an occupation in demand or a priority occupation.
British Columbia (B.C.) has a critical need for more early childhood educators (ECEs).
Under the BC PNP, these occupations are prioritized, increasing support for the care economy.
Registrants whose occupation is on a pre-determined list of in-demand ECEs, and who have a qualified, permanent job offer in B.C., will be given priority access to the BC PNP.
Priority access is achieved through direct-to-apply categories, such as targeted draws for qualified workers with a job offer as an ECE.
As registrants / applicants and employers must continue to meet all relevant program criteria, please carefully review the BC PNP Skills Immigration Program Guide for specific details.
You can still submit registrations and applications using the BCPNP Online system.
To find out whether you received an ITA, please log into your BCPNP Online profile.
Periodically, the BC PNP will invite people who are in the registration pool to submit an application to the program. ITAs are based on the information provided in registrations.
Information provided in the registrations will be used to rank, select and invite candidates who are most likely to meet B.C.’s economic and labour market needs, based on one or more of the following attributes:
- Education – level and field of education and where it was completed
- Language skills
- Occupation
- Duration and skill level of work experience
- Wage and/or skill level of job offer
- Intent to live, work and settle in a specific region
- Strategic priorities – factors that address specific labour market needs in B.C. or support government pilot projects and initiatives
