Federal Skilled Worker Program, Canadian Experience Class, Federal Skilled Trades Program, and a part of Provincial Nominee Program are the applicable programs under the electronic application management system of Express Entry.

Through the Express Entry program, foreign nationals fulfilling the requirements for one of federal immigration program will be positioned into a pool where from employers will be able to find candidates who will satisfy their requirements when they are unable to find either a permanent resident or the citizen of the country for the job.
