To be admitted to a professional order, specific Quebec diplomas are required. However, for people who completed their studies outside of Quebec, the diploma or training equivalence recognition procedure may also lead to obtaining a licence to practice.
Professional orders are responsible for setting standards and determining equivalence procedures.
Equivalence relates primarily to the subject of the courses taken, the number of years of education, the internships carried out, the training received, and the relevant work experience. Some orders may require people to undergo an interview or take exams.
