Thank you for your question. Yes, if you're applying to immigrate to Canada as a pharmacist through a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), you generally need to complete the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada (PEBC) certification process. This includes the PEBC Evaluating Exam, especially if you have completed your pharmacy education outside of Canada. The PEBC certification is crucial because most provinces require it as part of their licensure process for pharmacists. So, while the exact requirements may vary slightly depending on the province, having your PEBC certification will typically be necessary before you can practice as a licensed pharmacist in Canada. It’s a good idea to check the specific requirements of the province you're applying to, but getting the PEBC certification early will likely be a key step in your immigration and licensing journey. Best of luck with your application!
I'm a AL student from Sri Lanka I saw Registration with a regulatory body is required What is the meaning of it? Andalso My height is 138cm and I'm wearing spectaculs because there is a bit lack of distance vision can it be a problem to apply Medical laboratory science or pharmacist job?
Registration with a regulatory body in Canada: This means that in order to work as a pharmacist in Canada, you need to become licensed or registered with the appropriate provincial or territorial pharmacy regulatory authority. Each province or territory has its own regulatory body, and you must meet their specific requirements, which typically include passing exams, providing proof of education and experience, and meeting other criteria. Height and Vision: Your height should not generally be a factor in applying for a medical laboratory science or pharmacist job in Canada. What matters most is your qualifications, education, and experience. Wearing glasses for distance vision is a common and acceptable correction, and it should not typically pose a problem for job applications. However, it's essential to review specific job requirements with potential employers to ensure that your vision correction does not affect your ability to perform the duties of the job.
To apply for a Provincial Nominee Program, you would typically need to meet the eligibility criteria set by the province or territory you are interested in. But you must take the PEBC to be eligible and work as a pharmacist.

To immigrate to Canada as a pharmacist, you need to follow these steps: Credential Evaluation: Have your credentials assessed by the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada (PEBC). PEBC Exams: Pass the PEBC evaluating and qualifying exams. Language Proficiency: Demonstrate proficiency in English or French by taking a language test (IELTS or TEF).

Work Experience: Ensure your work experience is properly documented and relevant to your application. Express Entry: Create an Express Entry profile and submit it, indicating your interest in immigrating as a skilled worker.
In Canada, working as a pharmacist does not automatically lead to becoming a doctor. To become a doctor in Canada, one must follow a specific educational and licensing pathway, regardless of previous experience as a pharmacist or in another profession. Here are the general steps: Undergraduate Education: Complete an undergraduate degree, typically with a focus on sciences. This is a prerequisite for medical school admission. Medical School Admission: Gain admission to a medical school. This involves passing the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) and meeting other admission criteria set by the medical school. Medical School: Complete a medical degree program, which usually takes four years. Residency: After medical school, complete a residency program in your chosen area of specialty. The length of residency varies depending on the specialty. Licensing: Obtain a medical license from the medical board in the province or territory where you wish to practice. This involves passing the Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination (MCCQE) Part I and Part II, and meeting other requirements. Certification in a Specialty (optional): If you choose a specific specialty, you must get certified by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada or the College of Family Physicians of Canada, depending on your chosen field.
Hello thanks for this information. Does a pharmacist still need to do the Pebc exams after completion of a Master in public health with a study visa in a Canadian university?
Hi, I'm also a PharmD. living in Canada and yes, you need to pass all these processes to get the license that allows you to work in a clinical or community pharmacy however if your goal is to work in another aspect where you don't have contact with patients and the role description is not asking the candidate to be licensed or more specific to be a pharmD then you can work without doing the boards or getting the license, for example, I'm a PharmD and I haven't get the license and I work as a MSL in Canada, my studies Bs in chemistry (not in Canada) PharmD ( not in Canada), Ms ( not in Canada) MBA (Canadian degree)
Yes, an Indian diploma-holding pharmacist (D Pharmacist) can apply for a visa to work in Canada as a pharmacist, but they must first have their credentials assessed, pass the required Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada (PEBC) exams, demonstrate language proficiency, and obtain provincial registration.
Not necessarily, I'm a PharmD living in Canada and about to apply for the PR, I have an MBA in Canada and I can apply with my MBA, also if you want to apply with your Pharmacy degree in my understanding you only need the PEBC evaluation which is comparable with the other people does with WES. now, if you intend to work as a pharmacist in Canada ( Clinical or community pharmacist ), yes, you need to get the license. Still, if you are looking for a job in the pharma industry as a Medical Science Liaison, Regulatory affairs, pharmacovigilance, etc, you don't need to get a license. the secret is all those jobs that are open for health care professionals with no contact with patients and also that are open to several backgrounds for example Medical sales representative is usually open for business people, pharmacists, biologists, etc etc.
You need an IELTS score to be eligible for an immigration program like FSWP. The higher the IELTS score, the higher your score in the program. If you get high score in other items, score 7 could suffice.
Currently I am learning French language too
That's great! Learning French will be beneficial, especially if you plan to move to a bilingual province like Quebec.
