Those who do not have these Canadian certificates but have foreign, they will have to undertake ECA to validate their worth to the Canadian educational system.
On the job offer category, candidates should possess a job offer that is from an employer located in Atlantic province, have been reviewed by the province, and non-seasonal. They have grouped high skilled workers into levels 0, A, and B, which will be the preset condition for candidates.

Candidates should have undergone approved language test and score at least level four. The results of these tests should not be more than 2 years old.
They should also proof they have adequate money to support themselves and their families after resettlement.
