NOC query
New here, so be gentle with me 
and this is probably in the wrong section mods??
I have been offered a job which is a Manager's position (in Alberta). The NOC classification that fits the description best is category B, effectively a Skilled-Worker.
I've been in a managerial position for 15+ years but I have no education further than Secondary school, it's never held me back over here.
I notice on the form which needs to be filled out it states that NOC B is for a job recquiring further or post-secondary school ed. However on the form it does give the option to just tick the secondary ed box.
Bear with me......
So my question is can I still apply NOC B even though I don't back it up with degree or suchlike but do have 15+ years experience.
If anyone cares to shed a little light I'd appreciate it......it would also save me barking up the wrong tree.

Re: NOC query
Can't hurt to try applying. An LMO application is free.
Its as well whether or not they deem that there is a need to hire outside of Canada. I'm not sure that they would factor your experience into account in lou of qualifications.
Good luck with your application!
