I have a BSc in Physical Science in 2009 Delhi India. Since I was more interested in programming, I obtained another BSc in Software Engineering in a private campus. However, it was not that much accredited ( I just wanted to learn and get a job only at that time). While working, I obtained Master of Science Information Technology. I am working as a software engineer. My questions:
How to differentiate a Software Engineer and a Designer as per SINP guidelines (Both fall into 2173)?
Which certification I should get (all my jobs and duties align with 2173 software engineering, but MS is in IT, SINP mentions both : APEGS or CIPS )
If I go with APEGS, will my MS in IT will be enough ? I have 3 years of work experience after MS.
Can I apply SINP if APEGS does not offer professional certificate ? What if I get engineer-in-training ? What I should get from APEGS to apply for SINP as the minimum?
If APEGS is not the one, then my qualifications are enough to get CIPS license ?
Could someone please help me with any information ?
Do I have became CIPS member for Saskatchewan, and applied for certification. will my certification be valid in other provinces ? and second question : is it really required to be the CIPS member to apply for CIPS license ?
Note: Before doing all that, i dropped an email to CIPS admin and according to their reply its required to be the member of CIPS and apply for license.
only then i can pay application fee for CIPS license.
what is true i still have doubt..... can anyone confirm.

THanks, Brother...
I have applied for license... and please don't mind my grammatical mistake i was thinking about something else and typed something else..
So this is for everyone:
Step 1: Become the member of CIPS by paying $180 to $225 CND Dollars on CIPS portal.
Step 2: Get all your reference letter(s) from your employer(s).
Step 3: Send a copy of your ECA report directly to CIPS address from your ECA organization like WES or IQAS (log in to your WES or IQAS portal and request a copy of your ECA for CIPS. ( your will get the address in CIPS website or in CIPS license application form)
Step 4: Fill fee for CIPS license for the province you are applying for. Your license can be transferred to any province, all you have to do is drop an email to CIPS
Step 4: Fill the CIPS license application Form and EMAIL application soft copy + your reference letter(s) to [email protected]
Is it mandatory to keep the CIPS certification valid throughout the entire PR process? Will IRCC ask to show the valid CIPS certification during the process? My certification is due for renewal and bit confused whether to renew it or not. Appreciate your reply.
I have a question since you mentioned that IRCC evaluates all the qualifications which were required to get the PNP nomination, they should evaluate the ielts also right? When we submit the paper application valid ielts is not mandatory if we nominated with NOC A/0. What about the case of valid IELTS in the case of eligibility check which also required for the PNP nomination. Any idea?
I've been holding ISP designation from CIPS since more than 2 years now, but I see no benefit of it. Only that I'm paying yearly dues to keep up my membership. Nobody in the workplace asks for it; people (including employers) never even have heard of it. Even people/employers living in SK have no idea what CIPS designations are all about. I've never found it as a requirement for any job application ever! So in my opinion, it is of no use at all.

1) what about the 1000 thousand hours of experience. How to showcase this ?
2) will the employer letter from my company outline my roles and responsibilities (along with how many years i am with company and designation) ?
2.1) on the cips site it mentions about BOK and SFIA, What is this and how to showcase this ?
3) what is difference between ISP with Education and ISP having just IT experience ? Are some extra benefits in the former one ?
