Here are the steps you'll need to take when applying for a Skills Certificate.

1. Go to Ministry responsible for issuing the certificate, in the case of Trinidad and Tobago that would be Ministry of Foreign Affairs and produce the following documents:

â€¢ Valid form of national Identification
â€¢ Documents supporting qualifications in the approved category or
â€¢ Documents showing job experience in the respective category
â€¢ Birth certificate of dependents if accompanying
â€¢ Marriage certificate only if spouse is accompanying

2. The Ministry refers the application to the Committee or the body responsible for approving the skills certificate

3. The Committee will liaise with either the body responsible for recognizing qualifications e.g. the accreditation Council of T&T or the Ministry with responsibility for the particular field e.g. in case of media workers, the Committee will liaise with the Ministry of Information

4. Based on the advice in 3 the Committee will approve the issuance of the certificate

These are general guidelines from COHSOD and may differ among Member States. A general procedure will be issued from the Secretariat at the end of the Week.

I presently live in Jamaica ,I have CSME or what they call in Skills certificate.
basically its a piece of paper (and a stupid piece of paper it is, it is literally printed on an inkjet) that says i am qualified and could work in Jamaica.

If you do not have a first degree (like me) it is a nightmare to get!!!

I am an alumni of John Donaldson.

So when I went to apply with documents for me, my wife and two kids, they told me they don't know that School, so I will have to get my Credentials certified by the " University Council".

Sent my Documents to them in Kingston, (I live in Montego Bay, a four hour drive away) and waited, we called and called and got a run around, I physically when there and got them to certify me.

took their letter to the original application office then they process my Skills Certificate.

Then I took that to Immigration who then stamped Unconditional Landing in all our passports.

Took my all of Six months.

So after all of that I now have permission to live and work in Jamaica.

My company helped out with the logistics, calling, arranging appointments and paying for everything, if not, it would have been much harder.

There are other options, you could buy a Work permit, but that last a year and then you will have to buy a next one.

the skill cert is permanent.

Took me about six months.

Dealing with the government workers wa

I don’t think it’s a paper pushing degree he meant for his needs but a trade/ technical job that there was a need for in Jamaica

Hey I have no problem with that and I glad caricom counties protect their borders.

Thing is TT has always accepted strays for a while now . All these gas station, security workers and Labourers from caricom do they have trade or degrees to be lawful here.
