evaluation reports

Basic Report

• Most useful to those seeking general employment. 
• Identifies each fully or partially completed educational credential and indicates the comparable credential in Canada.
• Lists the academic institution attended, provides a brief program description, and indicates the number of years of education completed.
• Normally takes a minimum of four weeks to complete from the date all necessary documents are received by ICES.

Comprehensive Report

• Most useful to those seeking employment in a professional occupation or admission to a post-secondary institution.  The report includes all the information in a Basic Report  but also lists course subjects and converts both grades and credits or units and provides a calculation of the grade point average and identifies the language of instruction. 
• Normally takes a minimum of seven weeks to complete from the date all necessary documents are received by ICES.

Upgrades

If you have requested a Basic Report from ICES and later require a more in-depth report, you may request, for a fee, an upgrade of your initial report. Please refer to the ICES Fee Schedule.

Evaluations that require additional research or documentation may take longer to complete than the timelines indicated above.
