The Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP) is one of the three economic immigration streams under Canada’s Express Entry. The program allows skilled tradespeople with at least two years of work experience and at least moderate proficiency in English or French to qualify for permanent residence (PR) and settle in Canada.

You don’t require any educational qualifications to be eligible for FSTP. However, you can still receive extra Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points for your educational credentials, which may improve your rank in the Express Entry pool.

Trade Workers such as Cook, Chef, Baker, Butcher, Plumber, Carpenter, Electrician, Fisherman, Welder, Sheet Metal Worker etc. have huge demand in Canada and are invited to work in Canada through the FSTP Program.
