Is my board abdicating its responsibility by asking WES to evaluate foreign credentials?
A. Absolutely not. A WES evaluation report makes foreign educational credentials readily understood in Canadian terms, providing your board with a well-informed and objective assessment of the candidate’s academic qualifications. The evaluation does not make a recommendation regarding the broader issue of a candidate’s eligibility for licensing or certification. The evaluation report is a tool that allows you to more quickly and confidently make a decision regarding an applicant’s eligibility for professional licensing or certification.
