British Columbia Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP) Skills Immigration (SI), including the Express Entry BC (EEBC) option, is for workers and recent graduates with the skills, education, and experience that are needed in B.C.
If you have an indeterminate, full-time job offer in B.C., or if you have recently graduated from a Canadian post-secondary institution and have an indeterminate, full-time job offer in B.C., you may be eligible for Skills Immigration.
