NOC (National Occupational Classification)

The National Occupational Classification (NOC) is a standardized system used in Canada to classify occupations based on the type of work performed.

The NOC is used by employers, government agencies, and individuals to understand job requirements, assess skills, and analyze labor market trends.

Each occupation in the NOC is assigned a code and a description of the job duties, skills, and education required.

The NOC is critical for immigration applications, as many programs require applicants to have experience in a specific NOC code.
