Native Language: Kurundi

English Assessment: Not assessed by the Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB)*.

Recommendation: English language skills for Automotive Trades should be at least at the following CLB levels before you begin the process of foreign credentials recognition in Canada:

Writing: 5/6
Speaking: 6
Listening: 6
Reading: 7

*Note: The CLB is used across Canada as the basis for language assessment and teaching. In Manitoba, all the government-funded Adult English as an Additional Language (EAL) programs use the CLB. Some post-secondary educational institutions such as Red River College also recognize CLB test results for program admission.

The Apprenticeship Branch tries to accommodate special needs. If English is not your first language, you may ask permission to use a translator, a reader, or a language dictionary. You may also request more time to write the exam.
