Hi everyone,
I'm new in this forum and I am still researching on express entry. I recently got admission at BCIT in a one year full-time certificate course (Communication Design essentials). Here's the link to the specific program: https://www.bcit.ca/study/programs/6495cert#overview
I also have a 4-year BSc from my country (outside Canada). My question is, if I apply via express entry after completing my course at BCIT, will I get points for "Two or more certificates, diplomas or degrees."? I mean is that program eligible to get points in CRS?
However, if you would like to apply under CEC, you need one year Canadian work experience. Your one-year certificate program can only grant you a one year Post Graduation Work Permit which means that you need to find a qualified job before or right at the time that you graduate which is very difficult.
If possible, I would recommend you to switch to a two-year program.

Thank you so much for replying Doge. I actually have 3+ years of full time work experience from my home country and that is why I am planning to apply in Express entry. I roughly calculated my points and it should be something around 450-455.
