Hello,

I earned a diploma in Allied health Sciences - Medical Assistant a little over 15 years ago in the US I have over 12 years experience working in the medical field. Both admin and patient care (in the US I was working in place of an LPN) -
Where should I have my credentials etc assessed to gain the equivalent in Canada. I also want to pursue a BA degree utilizing my previous diploma and time in the field. I have seen the website with the 3 bodies able to do this but I am unsure of which one is best and which one gives the best evaluation. OR should I leave this to the university to decide which credits to give me.

Thanks!
