CANADAS NEW NOC 2021 ISSUED & IN AFFECT FOR FALL 2023
The New TEER System replaces the NOC Skill level
The earlier skill categories are 0, A, B, C. But IRCC has mentioned that the new NOC is going to have an altogether new TEER system to segregate the occupations of the applicants. TEER means Training, Education, Experience, and Responsibilities on which jobs will be categorized.
Why New TEER System is introduced by Canada?
To begin with, classifying professions based on "skill levels" is perplexing, given the NOC is concerned with occupations rather than skills. The new TEER system is introduced to lay a spotlight on the applicants who have good experience and education to work for a specific job.

Second, Statistics Canada claims that the previous NOC method is not up to the mark in dividing low- and high-skilled workers. So, this new NOC TEER method can categorize professionals more accurately based on their skills.
TEER Categories
Currently, there are 4 categories - 0, A, B, C. But NOC 2021 is coming with 6 different categories which are why it is worth migrating to work in Canada. Here is the detailed information on the TEER system.
