Credentials assessment is a step in taking the licensure examination in Canada.
Like anywhere in the world, individuals in regulated professions must take a board exam or licensure exam and pass it, so that they will be allowed to practice their professions in Canada.
Before you take the exam, an applicant must have their education and work experience assessed at the regulatory body of their profession in the province they wish to reside. In Canada you can only practice your profession in the province where you are licensed.
The instructions and requirements in getting your credentials assessed is different per province, to find out the specifics you have to go to the website of the regulatory body in the province you want to live in.
