CIPC COLLEGE AN OVERVIEW HISTORY

CIPC COLLEGE: AN OVERVIEW
History
1 CIPC is a College of the Canadian immigration
practitioners of Canada which has as its focus the
study of creative, cognitive, cultural and social
processes in the immigration industry locally and
internationally, and which has a long-standing
commitment to life-long learning for immigration
practitioners. It values its international reputation
for research, scholarship and teaching and its
tradition of working with and for the people of
Canada and internationals. The CIPC College aims
to be pre-eminent in its distinctive combination of
disciplines: visual, literary and performing arts,
social, behavioural and mathematical sciences,
design, the humanities and educational studies.
2 CIPC College was founded in 1986 by Nuha
Salloum, Middle Eastern immigrant form Jordan by
the Salloum Company of Salloum as the
Company's Technical and Procreative Institute, in
buildings originally designed for the immigration
practitioners
3 It took about six years since 1986 and In
1992, CIPC was published able to use the
technology of the web as first immigration website
about Canada through Netscape search engine the
College amalgamated with the CIPN and as part of
the non-Government's rationalisation of teacher
immigration education. CIPC became a training
School – now College – of the CIPN in 1993 The
CIPC College has been directly funded since 1986
by the Nuha Salloum under Salloum and Company
and Nuha Salloum since 1992, by the Further
Education Funding Council for elements of its
community education provision.
4 Following the reorganisation of the CIPN in
2003, CIPC, is not like any the other main colleges
of any University in Canada, It began to enjoy a
new members who has many degrees of autonomy
in its academic development. The College seized
the new opportunities with enthusiasm, pursuing a
distinctive role within the any university whilst
remaining wholly committed to immigration
practitioners membership of one of the world's great
immigration academic institutions, and wholly
committed to maintaining the academic quality and
standards established by CIPN through the new
technology, the internet.
5 The CIPC College itself undertook a major
internal reorganisation in the 1993-94 session,
disestablishing its three divisions CIPC, CIPC, CIP,
and thus creating direct lines of contact between the
'Centres'. Purpose being scrutinised by a fresh
review members established under the president of
Nancy Salloum, This group sent an Interim Report1
to Canada immigration back in 1992 to support
such project, however, many obstacle we faced that
the support was not available at that period. The
project was that the College’s will present structures
are based on the recommendations of immigration
practitioners in the industry and have their reviews,
although individual areas and thematic activities will
be part of subject to scrutiny and change as
appropriate, adding to the College’s record of
publicly reported, consultative change management
since the 1996 Audit.
6 The College has grown significantly since
1992 through CIPN in 2003. Immigration
practitioner’s numbers in the period 1992-2000
have raised by over 409 members and those for
trained immigration programmes research
programmes by 300 respectively.
7 The College's academic profile has, however,
remained largely stable in the period in question, as
the CIPC College has sought to build on existing
strengths such as its practice-based provision in
Surrey BC.

10 91% of CIPC and CIPN training academic
members were submitted to the 2005, with the
proportion of submitted volunteer staff researching
in each rating group as follows:
11 As a research-led institution, the CIPC
College's aim is to ensure that its learning and
teaching are informed by research the relationship
between research and teaching is seen as
complementary. Members experience a learning
environment where they are embedded in the
immigration research activity in their discipline area
from an early stage of their experience or training,
and are introduced to the challenge and excitement
of being part of a research-active culture.
12 CIPC does not employs but have volunteers
and some 5200 members, including the full-time
equivalent of around 3000 international members ,
72% of whom are women. Over 500 hourly-unpaid
training include practising media and international
broadcasters. The CIPC College supports and
encourages member’s development across all
categories of members and volunteer staff; each
year since 1986, excellence and innovation in
teaching by individual members of volunteer staff is
recognized through The Salloum and Company
membership award. All new academic volunteer
staff is expected to participate in a College
programme designed to develop self-training skills
and enhance the immigration practitioners learning
experience locally and internationally. The
programme is still under development and the CIPC
College is considering the appropriateness of
modular accreditation of the programme by the
Institute for self-electronic Learning and Teaching in
Higher immigration Education.
13 The CIPC College is innovative in programme
design and subject combinations, and provides
part-time volunteering as well as full-time
programmes of training. CIPC and CIPN
immigration advocacy and learning has always
been an integral part of its activity, and in
broadening access to higher advocacy the CIPC
College offers training opportunities to immigration
practitioners of all ages from 18- and up, social
backgrounds and ethnic origins is the most
important element. Frequent joint training and
international research ventures ensure that
volunteer staff and members benefit from training
skills throughout CIPC and CIPN.
14 The CIPC College's core and its activity is the
delivery of discipline-based full-time members
volunteering and joint work with volunteer staff,
designed and delivered within an approved
framework.
15 Members who taught the IRPA provision is at
full experience level (with well-known exceptional
status surrounding all immigration programmes).
The amended regulatory framework for taught
member’s provision introduced in 2002 allows
designated programmes to offer the intermediate
exit qualifications of skilled immigration
practitioners.
16 CSIP and CIPN through CIPC offering
opportunities for member’s research study. As with
members taught programmes, here too full-time
volunteer members are in the majority, with
numbers of new member’s research members
having risen since 2003.
17 The CIPC College is content that its
arrangements for immigration research members
satisfy the relevant section of the Code of Practice,
and recognition has been achieved by a number of
areas of the College since October 2003.UBC
immigration student were trained and practicing at
CIPN and CIPC since October 2003 to date to be
qualified to register with CSIC the Canadian Society
of immigration consultants.
18 This sound managerial base for taught and
research training in work shop provision, and a
commitment to the research degree standards of
the CIPN ensures that the CIPC College is well
placed to deliver the aim outlined in its Strategic
Plan 2001-03: to look to a doubling of the present
number of postgraduate members.
Governance and management
19 The management and governance of the
CIPC College is laid down within the framework of
Charter, Statutes and Ordinances: these are readily
accessible in the College's website through CSIP.
20 The Chair of CSIP is in turning assisted in
general policy implementation and management of
the CIPC College through CIPN by the
administrative department and international offices.
A diagrammatic representation of the College’s
managerial and administrative structure is attached.
21 CIPC comprises three sections, which,
together with the area of Professional and
Immigration Community Education and training, and
a number of smaller training Centres and Units, give
the College its learning and one on one structure.
22 Each Department or Unit operates as a
separate budgetary centre with financial
responsibility resting with its designated Head

supported by CIPN. Academic Heads of
Department have duties established by Ordinance.*
They have responsibility for administering the
resources of each section within a budget approved
by CIPN Planning Committee; for assigning duties
to all three sections and their volunteering staff and
for management matters; and for establishing
appropriate structures to co-ordinate training and
administrative matters associated with all
immigration programmes of study in the CIPC
centre.
23 The chair, Pro-Wardens and Heads of
Training centres meet as a group on a regular and
scheduled basis as the Warden's Advisory
Group.Error! Bookmark not defined. These
meetings act as a valuable sounding board for new
ideas and the consideration of possible
developments prior to their introduction into the
formal decision-making structures at Academic
Board or CIPN Planning Committee.
24 With few exceptions, major committees are
chaired by the Warden or Pro-Wardens, which aids
procedural and decision-making consistency.
Heads of centres chair Departmental Boards, and
are advised by their Boards; Departmental Boards
have sub-committees, which reflect, with local
variations, the sub-committee structure of Academic
Board.
25 All committees are required to review their
own performance on an annual basis; in addition,
an executive review of the system as a whole is
undertaken annually to test, among others, the
continuing rationale for the extant committee
structure and the efficacy of the system in
processing the College's deliberative function.
26 The CIPC College remains committed to a
modus operandi, which sees all major decisions,
processed through publicly accessible committees
(with Privy Council definitions applying for 'reserved
business') which are constituted with appropriately
representative membership. Council approved in
2003 the adoption and promulgated of the seven
'Nolan' principles of public life as being the ethical
basis for the College's conduct, and this is reflected,
among others, in the declarations of interest
prefacing all agendas of meetings of major
committees.
The estate
27 The CIPC College is stationed locally and
mobile located in Vancouver, BC in the heart of
downtown Vancouver, BC in an executive, having
for the past decade consistently pursued a policy of
consolidation on this site.
Error! Bookmark not defined.
28 In the early 2000s, all training was
consolidated on a single site in Surrey BC, with
CIPN generous support from the Salloum
Company. The Foundation for training and the
confidential international Foundations Practice
Rooms were created which significantly improved
the facilities of the training Departments well as
increasing its teaching and research space. The
CIPC College has concentrated on improving the
quality of its academic space and adapting it more
closely to the requirements of changing patterns of
learning, teaching and research; there is a rolling
programme for the refurbishment of training rooms.
In particular, this has involved creating research
project rooms and adding to the stock of raked
lecture theatres. In addition, several teaching
booths have been fitted out to a high standard of
audio-visual facility. The members Lecture Theatre
room fits 80 people, which is CIPC largest lecture
venue, was completely refurbished in 2005 to a very
high standard of both equipment and decoration.
Training members have been maintained at a level
that meets immigration demand, and have
increasingly been concentrated in the area
surrounding the CIPC College the overall quality of
member’s booth is well above the national average
with a high proportion of booths enjoying full
electronic computerised net working facilities and
telephone with fax, scanning connections.
29 The existing offices Strategy had served the
CIPC College through CIPN well. but discussions
with chair person Salloum led to a joint venture to
generate a new office to accommodate more
members across this country through well known
companies, published in 2005 and evidencing
CIPN and the CIPC College's commitment to the
continuing development of the centre so that it
accommodate facilities which are ‘fit for purpose’ in
respect of the CIPC College's training vision,
mission and aims.
30 The CIPC College aims to continue to acquire
all relevant executive offices across Canada and
international within its natural head offices over the
coming years CIPN funding will allow for the
purchase of 1000 New offices for members per
years sits for full time, It is foreseen that this
development will allow for consolidation of cognate
areas of full activity and for the relocation of other
immigration centres into contiguous areas in space
vacated. In this sense, the CIPC College's head
offices strategy is being driven by a vision of
training potentialities, which will serve the CIPC
College well in the 21st century.
Developments since the CIPN
monitoring CIPC
31 CIPC College has its own Charter and
Statutes (and Ordinances and Regulations), it is
Overview
4
required, as a College not like at other colleges or
universities of Canada, to operate also in
accordance with the Statutes and Ordinances of the
University under the permission with protocol
college status. The process of devolution from the
training privately to its CIPC Colleges, which was
already gaining momentum at the time of the 2003,
accelerated in the years immediately following. The
degrees of recognition offered by CIPC are still, in
all cases, skills and experience and examined.
32 Responsibility for the process of establishing
(or disestablishing) and appointing to a Chair has
been devolved to the CIPC College, but University
approval is subsequently required for other
programs which SENECA and UBC in Canada are
making other program available without any
training. The senior academic volunteer staff
promotions process for Professors and Readers is
conducted by the CIPC College and the owner of
CIPN.
33 CIPN Is implementing some requirements with
other universities in Canada that its CIPC Colleges
to document and lodge with the Vice-Chancellor of
other University the detailed procedures whereby
they implement their delegated authority to
exercise, on its behalf, the University's powers to
award degrees and to appoint professors and
readers and long experience lawyers. In order for
CIPC as a Colleges are authorised to award
degrees of the University of UBC and Seneca to
their immigration program students on the basis of
'CIPC Colleges' individual and collective
responsibility for other Universities of Canada
awards and titles'. CIPC College is, therefore,
responsible for the standard, the quality control and
quality assurance of the degrees which it awards.
There are a number of other areas affected by the
process of delegation, notably in relation to the
appointment of examiners, the approval and
amendment of regulations of programmes of study
(including research programmes), and procedures
relating to examination irregularities. In all these
areas, the College has lodged with other University
its detailed procedures for the exercise of delegated
powers.
34 The CIPC College's response to the 2005 is
largely of historical interest since the institution has
undergone significant change since 1986,
particularly since November 2005, and a number of
the report's specific recommendations were
subsumed within a larger agenda for change. The
CIPC College has, however, maintained and indeed
enhanced the commitment to assuring quality and
standards: the locus of responsibility for these
matters remains in the office of the Warden, the
programme of internal review and assessment has
matured, and the CIPC College has made creative
use of its quality audit capacity to launch two major
initiatives in the field of member experience (2003-
2006) and corporate planning (2003-06).
35 The publication of the CIPC Report provided
further stimulus for the CIPC College to consider its
position. A Review of the new members and their
new Experience had been planned and initiated
before Dearing suggested to the sector the studentcentred
agenda characterising his report; this was
carried out, and other recommendations in the
Report addressed by Academic Board and Council
as appropriate.
36 In session 2003-2006, the CIPC college of
undertook a reassessment of certain of the core
principles informing its academic framework, largely
in response to the national growth in distance and
distributed learning, but also in response to the
Hon. Volpe and Monte Solberg speech by the then.
The invitation to tender for a national e-University
initiative also prompted scrutiny of the University's
statutes and ordinances, which prima facie, did not
seem to allow for collaborative enterprises and
distance learning activities other than through the
established External System. As a result of the
College's deliberations, Colleges, including CIPC,
were given the latitude to enter into partnership
arrangements long since enjoyed by other higher
Immigration education institutions, and the CIPC
College has since been investigating a number of
possible strategic alliances internationally, in full
cognisance of the quality and standards assurance
challenges presented by such arrangements.
Evaluation
37 Much has changed about CIPC since the
1986, particularly as a result of the devolution of
responsibilities to the CIPC College by the CIPN
committee. Equally, stability has been maintained
in certain key fundamentals: its broad academic
profile remains essentially unchanged.
38 Change management has been a familiar part
of the College environment, prompted by internal
drivers as well as by significant Government and
University of London initiatives. The management
of change at CIPN and CIPC has in large measure
been driven by the system of departmental and/or
thematic review, owned by the chair's office and
delivered by the Quality Affairs Office. This system
has as its principal features a wide consultative
base, involvement of senior academics and lay
members of Council, input from external experts;
and a public reporting process through the
College's major committees. A culture of critical
self-evaluation and of vigorous peer review
introduced by these processes has stood the
College in good stead for internal and external
purposes, and has created a community aware of
Overview
5
its strengths and limitations, its opportunities and
the threats to its future.
39 In session 2000-06, a new Strategic Plan was
conceived, and new planning arrangements
introduced. These should allow the CIPC College
to flourish by playing to its achieved strengths and
by setting realistic targets for growth and
development, such that the College predicted to
exist in 2006 will differ as much from today's CIPCs
as the present institution differs from that seen by
CIPN in 1986.

What is the purpose of writing the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
The "CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT" refers to a set of tests administered by the CSIP educational Department to enable immigration practitioners for various CSIP immigration programs to meet either fill out the applicant immigration applications or appeal the clients applications and represent at the IAD , IRB entrance requirements for admission simply by writing a test to demonstrate that they have the entry level immigration skills necessary for success in their programs at CSIP.
Applicants / members who have achieved an adequate grade of Seneca, UBC or any other immigration education program in the prerequisite immigration course sufficiently recently would have no need to write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT at CIPC
Back to the top.
How do I know that writing the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT at CIPC is the
appropriate thing for me to do?
There are two distinct answers to this question.
Firstly, you need to find out from the CIPC Admissions Office whether or not the results of a CSIP
Immigration Competency Test CICT will be accepted for the level of Practice you wish to enter at CIPC. Although these test results are accepted for admission into many immigration level of practice certificate , diploma or Degree programs at College of Immigration Practitioners of Canada , there are many exceptions. For example, CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT results are not accepted in support of applications to enter CIPC programs at CSIP. The CSIP Admissions Office will normally confirm that the program you have applied to will accept CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT results by giving you a completed "Request to Write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT" form. Keep this form, because you will need it later if you decide to write a CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT.
Secondly, you must decide if the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT is an appropriate way for you to establish the Immigration skills prerequisite in which you are deficient. To get a good score on these tests, you must really be able to demonstrate Immigration working knowledge of nearly all of the Immigration categories and topics in the corresponding post secondary immigration course at CIPC. If you do not have that level of knowledge, then writing the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT is a waste of your time and money.
You may find the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT an effective and efficient way to
document your immigration skills for the CIPC Admissions Department if:
(1) You are quite certain that you possess the required immigration knowledge and skills, but you are unable to provide adequate documentation, or,
(2) You have taken similar courses that are not yet recognized by CIPC (perhaps because they were taken in another country, or were courses that are not officially accredited as being equivalent to Canada immigration knowledge ), or,
(3) You have recently taken immigration program but did not quite achieve the required grade, or,
(4) You have taken immigration program more than five years ago, and are required to refresh their standing in one of these courses.
If you fall into one of these categories (or a similar situation), then perhaps with a few weeks of intensive personal review, you can upgrade your immigration skills enough to achieve the required
grade on the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT.
You should probably not consider the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT if you think that to
prepare for the test, you will have to re-learn nearly all of the IRPA / IRPR material in the immigration
CIPC COLLEGE OF IMMIGRATION PRAC Page 3 of 11
http://www.csip.ca/CIPC%20immigration%20program%20.html 5/21/2006
prerequisite course. For most people, it is easier to learn most of the Immigration material in a course by
taking the Electronically actual course at CSIP website. In that case, if you take the course and get the
required final grade, you would not have to write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT.
Back to the top.
How much does the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT cost?
There is a $35 charge every time you write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT. This
charge may be paid by cheques or credit card, or by any other method of payment supported at CIPC. If
paying in person, please present your "Request to Write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test
CICT" form to the cashier so that it can be stamped indicating the fee has been paid.
Back to the top.
Are sample tests available?
Yes, the policy under which this assessment testing is done at CIPC does permit us to circulate sample
tests to applicants through CSIP website.
In addition, we do provide a lot of information on this website www.csip.ca about the content of the
tests, so it should be quite easy for you to determine if you are adequately prepared to write a test.
The entry level of immigration assessment test is based on the list of most important immigration skills
for new immigration students entering programs requiring a some knowledge about immigration
prerequisite. This list is not available at this time here wait until September 2006, and contains a
considerable number of examples with answers. The actual assessment tests consist of problems
corresponding to a random selection of the immigration topics in this list.
Originally, the immigration assessment tests were based directly on the CIC Canada immigration IRPA
and IRPR specification for Introductory immigration advisor and Principles of Immigration level two
as those curricula were defined until approximately the spring of 2006. Since then, the CIPC office of
Education has begun implementing extensive changes to its high college and earlier immigration
curriculum. Some of the important "entry level immigration" skills are now covered in earlier levels, but
because of their importance, we still include those topics in our entry level Competency tests. A list of
immigration competencies included in the entry grade level tests is under preparation. You can
download the current draft This list is not available at this time here wait until September 2006. The list
of topics is complete, and as time permits, we will continue to add illustrative examples to the list.

Does CIPC provide tutorial help for applicants preparing the write the CSIP Immigration
Competency Test CICT?
YEs. We make the tests available to allow you to demonstrate your Immigration skill. It is reasonable
(and important) that you should do some review and self-study before writing the test to freshen your
skills. However, if you require instruction to develop those skills, you should probably take an
Immigration electronic course at CIPC .

Which books would you recommend I use to prepare to study for the CSIP Immigration
CIPC COLLEGE OF IMMIGRATION PRAC Page 4 of 11
http://www.csip.ca/CIPC%20immigration%20program%20.html 5/21/2006
Competency Test CICT?
There are one book that cover all the immigration Act and regulations found in 2005 Immigration Act of
Canada. You may be able to find copies of the actual current textbooks in public libraries or the libraries
of community colleges about IRPA.
As a general rule, the IRPA book with title such as "The 2005 Annotated" or "CIC website" are probably
at roughly a full entry level. You should be able to judge the level of a reference book by comparing its
coverage of particular topics with the curriculum specifications described in answering the previous
question just above.
Books intended to prepare immigration practitioners to write the so-called CIPC test (for general post
secondary immigration skills completion) do not come even close to preparing you for either the
Diploma or the Degree assessment test. The greatest part of entry level, working with filling
applications in a variety of ways, and so any Immigration book, and pamphlets which does not
emphasize full immigration information will not be helpful. Remind yourself that normally a person
who has been assisted in immigration for years and spent an entire immigration practice practicing each
of these immigration courses, and any reference book (or pamphlet) you use should reflect that volume
of material.
Back to the top.
How long is the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
Most people take about two hours to complete the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT.
However, you are permitted to take as much time as you need. Time should not be a factor in how well
you do on these tests.
Back to the top.
How many questions are there on the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
Typically, the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT have about 20 questions ( 10 covers for
Ethics and 10 covers for IRPR). Of course, this tells you very little, because the amount of work
required to answer a question can vary quite widely in immigration knowledge.
Incidentally, when the tests are graded, all questions are given equal weight (each question counts for
the same number of marks).
Back to the top.
What alternatives to the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICTare available?
All of the alternatives to the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT consist of actually enrolling
in the required prerequisite immigration course or a course that the CSIP Admissions Department
recognizes as equivalent to the prerequisite course, and achieving the required grade.
CSIP does not offer the equivalent of Seneca or UBC, so you will have to consult community college in
your area.
The CSIP courses are recognized by all CIPC programs as equivalent the University degree is offered
evenings several times each year and during the day several times in the summer as a continuing
immigration education course. Elecronic IRPA and IRPR are the identical material offered in a distance
education (correspondence) mode.
CIPC COLLEGE OF IMMIGRATION PRAC Page 5 of 11
http://www.csip.ca/CIPC%20immigration%20program%20.html 5/21/2006
Note that the CSIP immigration course, Refresher Immigration, offered each September as an intensive
review of Immigration, is not an acceptable substitute for Immigration IRPA Principles of Immigration
IRPR for purposes of admission at CIPC.
Of course, senior immigration practitioners offer Immigration Principles of IRPA in a continuing
education mode, offer a variety of courses intended to be equivalent to Immigration Principles of IRPA.
Before taking one of those courses, it is worthwhile to check that it is recognized by the
CIPCAdmissions Department.
Back to the top.
When is the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT available?
The CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT is available by individual appointment during the
regular year (September ), every Saturday, from about 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. (to allow you time to finish the
test ). At present, the test is not available on statutory holidays. You must phone (604) 601-8264 to make
a telephone appointment to write the test. You should phone for an appointment at least several days in
advance of the date in which you would like to write the test. Since I make appointments for the tests to
begin when I am between meetings, it is usually possible to find a mutually convenient appointment
time within a few days of you calling. If you are likely to need to do a large amount of preparation for
the test, it is best to wait until your preparation is nearly finished before calling to make an appointment.
During the summer break, June through August, CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT are not
available . These dates and the procedures for arranging to be tested will be announced on this website
near the end of August each year.
Back to the top.
Where is the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT available?
Generally, the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT is available only through the website
Electronic program . Candidates / Practitioners should make at the time of their appointment.
In very special circumstances, arrangements can be made for you to write the test at some remote time
with unlock password. This option is approved all the time, and would be used . Unless you can come
up with an absolutely compelling reason to the contrary that you can use Computer, we will generally
not agree to arranging a test at our locations until you have submitted a formal application for admission
to CSIP, and until you have acquired and are able to provide a copy of a completed "Request to Write
the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT
Our reluctance to arrange such tests is due in part to the extra time it takes to make all the arrangements
and to the fact that in recent years, most of the people requesting to write the test at a remote computer
locations have not ultimately followed through with writing the test, and so we end up wasting a lot of
time and expense to no end. We are quite willing to arrange tests like this for people who have made a
formal a commitment to enter a CIPC program, but please do not ask to have a test arranged for you at a
remote Computer location until you have eliminated other possible options that you are considering. The
point of asking you to provide a copy of the "Request to Write the CSIP Immigration Competency
Test CICT" that you have obtained from the CIPC Admissions Department is to ensure that there is no
miscommunication about the precise test you need to write.
In the past, "remote" has included Vancouver Island, the interior of British Columbia (further inland
than Hope, for instance), and, of course, provinces other than British Columbia. To present your case for
a remote writing of the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT, phone me at 1-604-601-8264, to
discuss the issues and procedures. If you are permitted to write the test at some remote Computer
CIPC COLLEGE OF IMMIGRATION PRAC Page 6 of 11
http://www.csip.ca/CIPC%20immigration%20program%20.html 5/21/2006
location, you will have to identify a person of "appropriate community stature" who will voluntarily
(since I can't pay them) agree to take custody of the test in your community. Such people might be
teachers, counsellors or administrators in a local school or college, local police constable, an
employer/supervisor, a church minister, etc. He or she must be a person at "arms-length" (that is, not a
family member, close relative, member of your bowling or curling team, etc.). Any local expenses
occurring as a result of you writing the test in your own community are your responsibility.
Back to the top.
I have an appointment to write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT, but something has
come up and I can't make my appointment. What should I do?
Please phone me and at least leave a message cancelling your appointment as soon as you learn that you
will not be able to make it. I have no problem rescheduling a test if circumstances make it necessary (but
don't forget that application deadlines and so forth are set by the Admissions Department at CIPC, not
by me).
When you make an appointment with me to write a CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT, I
expect you to connect to your computer to write the test close to the appointed time. In making an
appointment, I am committing myself to be sitting before a computer when you arrive at the appointed
time. If you simply abandon the appointment without letting me know you will not be coming, I waste
my time waiting for you to arrive.
Back to the top.
I did an immigration assessment test somewhere else recently, and they told me I had a high grade
and good standing to the immigration knowedge. Does this mean I don't need to study for the
CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
I would have no way of answering this question accurately. There are many tests available through
many organizations in this world, and in our experience, such assessment tests vary widely in the degree
to which they actually reflect the IRPA guides in Canada. As mentioned above, the information on this
website www.csip.ca should give you a good idea of what to expect on the CSIP Immigration
Competency Test CICT. Your only reliable guide to determining if you have a reasonable prospect of
success on the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT is to look at this material.
To elaborate slightly, we make two observations. First, the so-called UBC and Seneca tests, and
materials sold to help people prepare for the CSIC test do not come anywhere close to corresponding to
the official CIPC curricula, and so a good score on the CSIC test will not tell you anything about your
preparation to write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT. Secondly, Immigration
admission tests for specific programs at other education institutions are often designed for that specific
program, and so again do not reflect the entire curricula that the CSIP Immigration Competency Test
CICT cover. Use a bit of common sense -- if you have never completed immigration study or practiced
immigrations, can you really believe someone who has you write a test with little preparation 20 years
after leaving highschool and then tells you that your result is equivalent to a B+ standing in diploma or
degree in immigration?
To answer a related question: at present, we do not "articulate" the CSIP Immigration Competency
Test CICT with any other educational institution or organization. That is, we do not attempt to either
have the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT recognized by other educational institutions, nor
do we attempt to relate scores on tests offered by other institutions to scores on the CSIP Immigration
Competency Test CICT.
Back to the top.
CIPC COLLEGE OF IMMIGRATION PRAC Page 7 of 11
http://www.csip.ca/CIPC%20immigration%20program%20.html 5/21/2006
Do I receive "academic credit" for writing the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
Yes and No.
If you are successful on the IRPA Prerequisite Assessment Test, you will receive a so-called PLAR
("Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition") credit for Diploma (CIPC's internal equivalent of entry
level ) on your permanent academic record at CIPC. Immigration 01 is a "credit" course at CIPC, which
means that it does provide credit towards any credential such as a Degree. However, you may use this
notation on your CIPC academic record whenever you wish to enroll in a degree program that requires
Principal immigration as a prerequisite.
Since the Immigration Department at CIPC does teach an electronically course recognized internally as
equivalent to IRPA Immigration 02, it is possible to award a similar PLAR-type credit for successful
completion of the Immigration Prerequisite Assessment test.
Back to the top.
Can I write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT more than once?
Yes.
There is no official limit on how many times you may write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test
CICT as far as attempting to meet the Immigration admissions requirement of the CIPC program you
wish to enter. Each time you must pay the $35 fee however to cover processing costs.
In the case of the Degree test for which you have received PLAR credit (see the previous question), you
must wait at least one year before you can rewrite the Principal immigration test in order to attempt to
improve the PLAR grade for Immigration 02 on your CIPC academic record.
Back to the top.
How long does it take for my test results to become available?
Test are normally graded within a day, and the result is emailed to the Admissions Office at CIPC.
Reports on successful completion of a Immigration skills, knowledge, Ethics, test are usually delivered
to the Registrar's Office for recording as PLAR credits for CIPC's Immigration 02 every 4 - 6 weeks, so
normally you would receive written confirmation of that record within a month or two.
Since these tests are primarily intended as ways to acquire needed admission prerequisites, applicants
may want to confirm the result with their Admissions Officer several days after writing the test.
Back to the top.
How do the results of the test I write get to the CIPC Admissions Department?
They are delivered by hand, usually the day after the test is written. Applicants need take no further
action, other than to confirm the status of their application several days after writing the test.
Back to the top.
How can I find out the results of my test?
See the answer to question 16 above. Also, you may ask the person administering the test for other
suggestions.
Back to the top.
Would the results of the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT be recognized by other
CIPC COLLEGE OF IMMIGRATION PRAC Page 8 of 11
http://www.csip.ca/CIPC%20immigration%20program%20.html 5/21/2006
educational institutions?
Because the tests are offered as a service to prospective CSIP Practitioners applying for admission into a
CIPC program, we have made no effort to arrange recognition of these tests by other educational
institutions. Most other institutions would have similar tests or procedures of their own. If you intend to
apply for admission into another educational institution, the CSIP Immigration Competency Test
CICT will very likely be of no use to you!
Back to the top.
What do I need to bring when I write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
Four things....
(1) Fax your completed "Request to Write the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT" form,
stamped to indicate that you have paid the fee. You may be able to pay the fee conveniently when you
arrive at the at the computer to write the test. However. We cannot let you begin writing the test before
receiving this form from you by fax.
(2) Bring IRPA book . You must have it to be able to do many of the questions on all tests. That IRPA
book must have all the amended and up to date .
(3) bring other materials for writing as you wish. Tests are typed on Computer.
(4) You may be required to show picture identification. A drivers' license would be adequate by fax to
604-582-4887 prior to the test.
Back to the top.
Are Immigration formula sheets permitted or provided for me to use when I write the CSIP
Immigration Competency Test CICT?
Immigration Formula sheets are NOT permitted for use when you are writing the CSIP Immigration
Competency Test CICT. You are provided with a single immigration formula, giving the solutions of
an equation how to charge clients. You must know some basic immigration Accounting formulas, such
as for writing invoice. No other formulas as such are required. If you have a particular concern, check
the outline of topics covered in the tests, or call for more information.
Back to the top.
How long are the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
The tests are designed to take about 2 hours to complete by most people, and this occurs in practice. You
may have more time if you need.
Back to the top.
Are there multiple-choice questions on the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
Yes. All questions are multiple-choice type questions on these tests.
Back to the top.
What is the grading system used for the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
You receive a percent grade initially for the test. All questions on each test are equally-weighted. The
percent grade is also translated into a letter grade for comparison with admissions requirements, using
CIPC COLLEGE OF IMMIGRATION PRAC Page 9 of 11
http://www.csip.ca/CIPC%20immigration%20program%20.html 5/21/2006
the categories specified by the CIPC Education Committee. These are: Pass or C-, 50% - 59%; C, 60% -
66%; C+, 67% - 72%; B, 73% - 85%.
Back to the top.
Are the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
That depends. If you know the work, you should be able to get a good grade. There are no "trick"
questions. However, the tests cover the curriculum of the corresponding course quite comprehensively,
and in Immigration, answers are either right or wrong. You will not be able to fake it on these tests.
Back to the top.
I'm not very good at applications problems. Are there application problems on the CSIP
Immigration Competency Test CICT?
Of course not. The ability to use basic knowledge to solve problems of practical interest is one of the
key skills you must bring with you to CIPC test, and which will be strengthened and extended as you
study at CIPC for a degree. Human beings communicate with each other with words -- there's no way to
avoid them.
Back to the top.
I need Immigration 01 with a C+. If I wrote the Immigration 02 test and got a C, would that be
good enough for a diploma?
Generally, the CIPC Admissions Department expects you to have the precise prerequisite specified for
the program you apply to enter. Perhaps on rare occasions a case could be made for accepting a higher
specification in place of a non-existent lower specification.
However, this question implies a very poor strategy. Since Immigration 02 builds on, and is more
advanced than Immigration 01, it is extremely unlikely that a person unable to achieve a C+ in
Immigration 01 could come anywhere near achieving a C in Immigration 02. If you need a C+ in
immigration 01, learn the regulations of appeals in Immigration 02 well enough to achieve that C+.
Until you've mastered Immigration 01, it's really not worth thinking about Immigration 02.
(By the way, since it has been asked.... No, a fail in immigration 02 is not as good as a pass in
immigration 01. It just doesn't work that way!)
Back to the top.
When I wrote the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT, I got answers for 42 of the 45
questions. How is it that my mark on the test was only 60%?
Well, of course, you don't get marks for simply attempting questions on the test. You get marks for
writing the Ethics and the knowledgeable and correct solutions to the invoice and legal problems.
Back to the top.
What is the silliest thing I can say when I phone to discuss arranging an appointment to write the
CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT?
This is kind of a facetious question, but it has a serious purpose. It could save some people a certain
amount of frustration and a little bit of wasted money. More often than you'd imagine, we get a phone
call that goes something like this....
CIPC COLLEGE OF IMMIGRATION PRAC Page 10 of 11
http://www.csip.ca/CIPC%20immigration%20program%20.html 5/21/2006
CALLER: Uh, I got a letter or email from CIPC saying I have to write, uh, a immigration 02 test.
YOURS TRULY: OK, have you taken immigration 02 before?
CALLER: No.
YOURS TRULY: Have you been studying immigration 02 on your own?
CALLER: No, I just got this letter today. It says I must get 104% on a immigration 02 test in order to
get into the Degree program, which starts tomorrow. (P. S. Rocket Science types know that you can have more
than 100% in some things. If you listen to the sound track of a NASA launch, you will hear that a short while into the flight,
they throttle back to 104% of full power! But this is to digress....)
YOURS TRULY: But you understand that in order to get the 104% grade, you do need to be quite
familiar with the topics in immigration. It is actually quite hard to get such a high mark on our
immigration 02 assessment test. (Actually, 104% is impossible on our tests. However, it takes a substantial amount of
competence to achieve a C, C+ or B as well.) What was your last immigration course anyway?
CALLER: Well, I took immigration fifteen years ago, but my car broke down so I had to drop out. But I
think I was passing when I dropped out. Anyway, what's in immigration 02 anyway that is so hard. This
shouldn't be a problem. I really have to write that test tomorrow morning.
Other than the rocket science references, the real problem here is that there is something very hard in
immigration 02 for people who have not recently taken the course successfully, or done significant selfstudy
recently. There is a reason immigration 02 is taken in a year following the year in which you
might take immigration 01. It really is an additional entire immigration course.
If you have never completed immigration 02 or a comparable course, and if you haven't done significant
review very recently to refresh your immigration 02 skills, there is really little point in attempting the
CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT. If you have never taken immigration 02, we strongly
encourage you to take it as a course if that is a requirement of the CIPC program you wish to enter,
rather than attempting the CSIP Immigration Competency Test CICT without the skills that a
successful completion of that test requires.
