Canada PR options for an Early Childhood Educator

Canada offers multiple options for prospective immigration candidates to study, work, and settle permanently.

We’ve listed the top 4 ways for you to migrate to Canada as an early childhood educator:

Express Entry system;

Provincial Nominee Program;

Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot; and

Atlantic Immigration Pilot.

Express Entry System

Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) manages applications for three federal immigration programs, namely the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), the Federal Skills Trades Program (FSTP), and the Canada Experience Class (CEC).

Early childhood educators are classified as level B as per the National Occupation List, making them eligible to qualify and apply for any program under the Express entry system.

The points-based system assesses every registered profile on age, education, work experience, and language proficiency in English or French. The evaluated profiles are further ranked following the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS).

IRCC conducts Express Entry nomination draws every fortnight to issue invitations to apply (ITAs) for permanent residency to the highest-ranking candidates.

Provincial Nominee Program

The job prospects of Early Childhood Educators are extremely demanding in provinces like Manitoba, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Yukon Territory.

Other immigration-heavy provinces like Saskatchewan, New Brunswick, Ontario, British Columbia, and Alberta have fair chances of employment as Early Childhood Educators.

Top Canadian Provinces That Need Early Childhood Educators & Assistants 
Province Immigration Stream
Manitoba Manitoba Skilled Worker Overseas Stream
Nova Scotia Labour Market Priorities Stream
Prince Edward Island Express Entry & Labour Impact Categories

Candidates with an active Express Entry profile are at a distinct advantage after securing a provincial nomination. They get 600 additional points summing up with their overall CRS score. This will effectively guarantee them an invitation to apply for permanent residency in subsequent federal draws.

Rural & Northern Immigration Pilot

Foreign skilled workers with a valid job offer in one of the participating communities in Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia can qualify for immigration. Early Childhood Educator as an occupation is in high demand in Manitoba & Saskatchewan. Applying through RNIP may improve your chances of qualification.

Being an employer-specific pilot, applicants must show their intent to live in the community. All other requirements include work experience, language proficiency, minimum education criteria, and proof of financial stability.

Atlantic Immigration Pilot

An extension of RNIP is the Atlantic Immigration Pilot Program (AIPP) which focuses on the immigration of foreign skilled workers in the Atlantic region of Canada. It includes New Brunswick, Newfoundland & Labrador, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island.

Early Childhood Educators are in huge demand in Nova Scotia & Prince Edward Island. Applying through AIP may improve your chances of qualifying.
