The calculator uses the following point values for each category:

Two-year diploma or certificate 110
Bachelor's degree (3+ years) 150
Master's degree or PhD 170

CLB 7 or higher 31
Age 18-29 years 30

Job Offer Valid job offer 20

The calculator sums the points from each category to determine your total score. The minimum score required for consideration in 2019 was 67 points.

Example Calculation

Let's calculate the points for a candidate with the following details:

  • Education: Bachelor's degree (3+ years)
  • Work Experience: 5-7 years
  • Language Proficiency: CLB 7 in English
  • Age: 30-34 years
  • Job Offer: Yes

Using the point values from the table:

Total Points = 150 (Education) + 150 (Work Experience) + 31 (Language) + 25 (Age) + 20 (Job Offer) = 376

This candidate would receive a total of 376 points, which is well above the minimum requirement of 67 points.
