Canada Occupation in Demand List 2023 | Find Your NOC code

Canada National Occupational Classification list (NOC) is a system Canada governments use to classify jobs (occupations). In canada, Jobs are grouped based on the type of work a person does. Its very necessary an  immigrant must know their NOC code that correlates with their job for a visa application.

For immigration purposes, the main job groups are:

  • Skill Type 0 (zero): management jobs, such as:
    • restaurant managers
    • mine managers
    • shore captains (fishing)
  • Skill Level A: professional jobs that usually call for a degree from a university, such as:
    • doctors
    • dentists
    • architects
  • Skill Level B: technical jobs and skilled trades that usually call for a college diploma or training as an apprentice, such as:
    • chefs
    • plumbers
    • electricians
  • Skill Level C: intermediate jobs that usually call for high school and/or job-specific training, such as:
    • industrial butchers
    • long-haul truck drivers
    • food and beverage servers
  • Skill Level D: labour jobs that usually give on-the-job training, such as:
    • fruit pickers
    • cleaning staff
    • oil field workers

Canada immigration programs use the NOC to decide if a job or type of work experience meets their eligibility. They consider “skilled” jobs those with NOC Skill Type 0, A or B. They assess jobs against the 2016 version of the NOC.
