Canada has announced the renewal of its commitment to the
Express Entry program, which seeks to draw talented immigrants into six
categories to combat labour shortages and promote economic development.
These new categories will be maintained by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) in 2024, underscoring Canada's economic growth strategy and drawing in skilled workers to fill labour shortages.
The Federal Experience Class (CEC), Federal Skilled Worker
Program (FSWP), and Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP) are all administered
by the Canadian immigration system Express Entry. Rankings are determined by several criteria, including age, flexibility, work experience, education, and
language skills. Six categories comprise the system, each intended to fill a
particular labour shortage. French speakers who receive at least a 7 in each of
the four language proficiency categories are targeted in the first group. With
prior experience in particular positions, the second group focuses on the
scarcity of healthcare workers. Thirdly, there are categories for professionals
in STEM subjects, critical positions in skilled crafts, transportation sector
demands, food security and agricultural sustainability, and transportation
sector needs.
The Canadian Immigration and Refugee Program (CIARP) invites
individuals with active Express Entry profiles to participate in targeted
drawings. A minimum of six months of full-time job experience in a related
field within the previous three years is required. In its first phase, 1,500
healthcare applicants were invited, and 7,000 French speakers were invited in
2024. Candidates must receive a 7 in each of the four language competences
according to the Niveaux de compétence linguistique canadiens. Canada focuses
on specific skills and language competencies to attract talent that meets
economic demands and labour shortages. To be considered for the program,
individuals must build an Express Entry profile and strive for a high CRS score.
