Moving to Canada

[QROPS]

Hi guys, I'm looking for a bit of general advice.

My partner is a Philippine national and is a qualified Pharmacist in the Philippines, would anyone here know the best route to take for her to be able to find employment in Canada? Is the qualification easily transferable?

Thanks.

I am sure you already know this, but each canadian province has its own regulatory body, I think for the most part pharmacist regulations are pretty similar, but you need to choose which province you want to work in, then contact the regulatory body for that province. This will resolve your regulatory question, they may also be able to point you in the direction of the professional association, who will probably be able to help with regards job opportunity.

You should probably check out the canadian immigration dept website (www.cic.gc.ca) there you will find a definitive guide to the immigration process, including costs and also a list of professions which may be in demand, - i havent checked it out in a while, but immigration is likely to be easier if there is a demand for your skill
