We are not authorised to determine academic qualifications or credentials and do not endorse any credential evaluation service.
However, we do understand that students have real questions about how their qualifications will be regarded in Canada and/or the UK. For this reason we have identified some organisations that might be helpful for you.
For professional qualifications we suggest that students contact the professional governing body for their field, such as the Canadian Bar Association or the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, before they start their international course. Canadian and UK qualifications are generally considered equivalent, but there might be some exceptions so it is best to make this initial enquiry to avoid any surprises further down the road.

Information on an equivalent UK degree to one gained in the Canada is available from the National Academic Recognition Information Centre (NARIC).
