The National Occupational Classification (NOC), the national reference of eligible occupations in Canada, has undergone some new changes released in March this year.
The NOC is Canada’s national system of organizing and identifying occupations. It consists of over 30,000 job titles or codes combined into 500 unit groups that are then structured according to four skill levels and ten broad job categories.
