A partir de 16 de novembro de 2022, a imigração canadense – IRCC – fará a transição para a versão de 2021 da Classificação Ocupacional Nacional (NOC). Isso significa que a atual estrutura de tipo e níveis de habilidade do NOC 2016 (NOC 0, A, B, C e D) será substituída por um sistema de 6 categorias representando o treinamento, educação, experiência e responsabilidades (TEER) necessários para trabalhar em uma ocupação.
From then on, the 4-digit occupation codes will become 5-digit codes. Programs that used the NOC skill type or levels will now use TEER categories, and the eligibility criteria for all programs that use the NOC will be updated.
New TEER categories
| Skill type or level | TEER category |
| Skill type 0 | TEER 0 |
| Skill level A | TEER 1 |
| Skill level B | TEER 2 and TEER 3 |
| Skill level C | TEER 4 |
| Skill level D | TEER 5 |
