Re: Trade certification
NOC 8252 is "8252 Agricultural service contractors, farm supervisors and specialized livestock workers" and isn't necesarily a trade - Trades are usually things like electrician, plumber, mechanic etc.

Re: Trade certification
Does anyone know would the application still be FST even without the certification?

Re: Trade certification
Hi
Any luck in finding out more?
I know of someone who came from South Africa..has many provable years as a Farrier.
But was employed as a Farm foreman to meet the requirements of entry.
I live in Alberta and there is NO demand for horse trainers...so many own horses here that training is all referred by word of mouth, so unless you have trained a Grand National winner it is not going to be worth the cost in prove your education/work history etc.
BUT
the Animal Husbandry route, if you want to work with cattle/Buffalo may be your best route!? if again you can prove some experience.
In the more remote north here, farms do look for staff and may be able to support an LMIA, but remote north comes with some different standards of living!

Whereabouts in Alberta are you? This is not my experience at all. My daughters have been involved in all manner of horse riding and they have used coaches (in the "teach me how to ride" sense) and have also used horse trainers (in the, "take this horse, break it and train it to do "X"" sense) too. Many of each type of trainers have come from all over the world.
