Variant of NOC 2016 Version 1.0 - Analysis by skill level
Additional information
This classification variant reflects the aggregation of NOC major groups by skill level. The NOC skill levels are explained in the NOC classification criteria. NOC skill level A, is divided into two classes, a.1 Management and a.2 Professional, reflecting the two criteria used to define NOC skill level A.
Each skill level category is composed of complete major groups; no major groups are split between skill level categories.
Conformity to relevant internationally recognized standards
The NOC is comparable to the International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO) published by the International Labour Organization (ILO). NOC and ISCO use a similar conceptual framework that includes the Skill Type and Skill Level dimensions.
