2021 NOC System
As of November 16, 2022, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will be transitioning to the new 2021 version of the National Occupation Classification (NOC) system. The changes in effect have major implications for candidates that apply for Canada PR and Work Permits – as well as those with an active profile in the Express Entry system.
National Occupation Classification (NOC)
Canada’s National Occupation Classification (NOC) is a nationally-recognized standardized system that assigns a code and job description – to every in-demand occupation in the Canadian labor market. Codes are categorized based on the type of work and job duties. When applying under an Economic Immigration program, candidates must select the NOC that best matches their job.
Replacing Skill Type with TEER categories
As of November 16, 2022, IRCC has switched to the new 2021 version of the NOC.
Earlier, candidates were required to have employment experience classified under NOC Skill Types 0, A, or B – referring to the 2016 NOC system. This big shift to the 2021 NOC system will see these skill types replaced by the Training, Education, Experience, and Responsibilities (TEER) categories.
TEER 0
- Management occupations.
TEER 1
- Completion of a university degree (bachelor’s, master’s, or doctorate); or
- Several years of experience in a specific occupation from TEER category 2 (when applicable).
TEER 2
- Completion of a post-secondary education program of two to three years at community college, institute of technology, or CÉGEP; or
- Completion of an apprenticeship training program of two to five years; or
- Occupations with supervisory or significant safety (police officers and firefighters) responsibilities; or
- Several years of experience in a specific occupation from TEER category 3 (when applicable).
TEER 3
- Completion of a post-secondary education program of fewer than two years at community college, institute of technology, or CÉGEP; or
- Apprenticeship training of fewer than 2 years; or
- More than six months of on-the-job training, training courses, or specific work experience with some secondary school education; or
- Several years of experience in a specific occupation from TEER category 4 (when applicable).
TEER 4
- Completion of secondary school; or
- Several weeks of on-the-job training with some secondary school education; or
- Several years of experience in a specific occupation from TEER category 5 (when applicable).
TEER 5
- Short work demonstration and no formal educational requirements.
- With an increase from the current four skill levels, here’s how the skill types categories of the 2016 NOC system match with six new TEER categories of the new 2021 NOC system.
| Skill Type OR Level | TEER Category |
| Skill Type 0 | TEER 0 |
| Skill Level A | TEER 1 |
| Skill Level B | TEER 2 and TEER 3 |
| Skill Level C | TEER 4 |
| Skill Level D | TEER 5 |
