SUMMARY
The release and implementation of the 2021 version of the National Occupational Classification (NOC) had a dramatic impact on immigration applications handled by HR professionals and their legal teams. This course, taught by a lawyer with decades of experience in corporate immigration applications, will provide an in-depth discussion of how the new NOC 2021 works, including major developments, the NOC structure and the new 5-digit unit group format. Changes from the NOC 2016 will be discussed, as well their practical implications on Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), work permit and permanent residence applications. The instructor will also provide some general tips on finding the right NOC for an HR professional, either in the context of an immigration/mobility application or other.
