Education Updates

In 2025, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) launched education category-based draws within Express Entry, offering a dedicated immigration stream for skilled workers in the education field.

#TheNeed.

Why Canada needs more Teachers?

Canada is currently experiencing a shortage of teachers, and the government is actively seeking professionals in this field. The Education Category-Based Selection in Express Entry provides teachers with a better chance of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA), even if their CRS score isn’t the highest.

Teachers in various roles, such as Early Childhood Educators in Canada, Elementary and Kindergarten Teachers in Canada, College and Vocational Instructors in Canada, and University Professors in Canada, are in high demand. The country offers competitive salaries, career growth, and a great quality of life.
