About category-based rounds
IRCC holds targeted "category-based" draws for in-demand groups: Healthcare and social services, STEM, Trades, Transport, Agriculture and agri-food, and Education. Each card above is tagged with its NOC code, TEER level, and the category round it belongs to. This is a curated set of high-demand occupations — your exact job may still qualify through the general or program-specific rounds even if it isn't listed here.
There is also a French-language proficiency category. It's based on your French test score (NCLC 7+), not your occupation — so it isn't in the occupation list above. You'll capture it in the assessment's language section, where strong French also earns bonus CRS points.
