The Canada Experience Class (CEC) is a permanent residence program for foreign workers with Canadian work experience. The program aims to fast-track the immigration process for these workers, who are already familiar with Canadian society and the Canadian workplace.\u00a0<\/p>

If their application is successful, candidates will receive a Confirmation of Permanent Residence document, which they will need to present when they arrive in Canada as a permanent resident.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      The CEC is a part of the Express Entry system, which is an online application process that manages applications for permanent residency. You will need to create an Express Entry profile on the Government of Canada website, where you will provide your personal information, work experience, language test results, and other details.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

      After submitting your Express Entry profile, you will receive a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score based on your skills and experience. If your CRS score is high enough, you will receive an ITA to apply for permanent residency.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
