In order to create an Express Entry profile, you’ll first need to create an Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) account then submit your profile to formally enter the Express Entry pool of candidates. To create your profile, you’ll need:

• National Occupational Classification (NOC) number: This is the system the Canadian government uses to classify various jobs and occupations.
• Education credential assessment (ECA): This report verifies that your foreign degree, diploma, certificate, or other credentials are valid and equal to a Canadian one.

Approved language test: Test results can be for either English or French. This test evaluates your language skills in speaking, reading, listening, and writing.
