How to use this
Pick two or three that genuinely fit what you already do, do the work, and let the record accumulate. Recognition you did not earn is worthless, and in an immigration file it is worse than worthless.
Every entry here is free to apply for. We do not list anything that charges a fee to be considered, and the programmes that do are written down and excluded rather than forgotten.
