TEER 4: common questions
What does TEER 4 mean?
TEER 4 is a level in Canada's NOC 2021 Training, Education, Experience and Responsibilities system. Occupations that usually need a high school diploma or several weeks of on-the-job training. It is the second digit of a five-digit NOC code, so every TEER 4 code looks like X4XXX.
Are TEER 4 jobs eligible for PR?
Not through Express Entry, which needs TEER 0 to 3 experience. TEER 4 workers can still reach PR through some provincial nominee streams and federal pilots, such as the caregiver and agri-food pathways, when they meet those programs' rules.
Is TEER 4 the same as NOC C?
Roughly. IRCC maps the old NOC 2016 skill level C to TEER 4. Codes changed from four to five digits, so look up the new code rather than reusing the old one.
