If you are planning to move to Canada for higher studies, employment, or immigration, World Education Services (WES) is one of the most recognized credential evaluation services. It assesses educational qualifications obtained outside Canada and determines their equivalency in the Canadian education system.
Applying for a WES Canada evaluation from India is a straightforward process if you follow the right steps. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you through the process.

- Select the appropriate evaluation type (ECA for Immigration or Course-by-Course for Education/Employment).
- Fill in your personal details and create an account.
Step 2: Choose the Right Evaluation Type
- Educational Credential Assessment (ECA): Required for immigration purposes, particularly for Express Entry.
