This is normal for people with no 16 year education or with a BS from a non- CS field and that is applying for IT jobs.

Evaluation of training and Experience by a College Official..Need help

txh1b,
thanks for your quick response.But i have 16 years of experience and Bachelor of engineering in computer science and 7 years of IT experence.
I think its my bad luck..that i should get this kind of RFE..

Anyway Can you tell how what should proceed further..Do i need to go to university professor or registrar for getting the evaluation done..there are so many clauses they mentioned in that RFE like the one below:

Note: College or university professors writing evaluation as consultants on behalf of private educational credentials evaluations firms will not satisfy this requirement as regulations limit the scope of their evaluation to only foreign education.



when i consulted a company there are charging $450 for this kind of evaluation through a professor..Please suggest me correct way to handle this RFE.

Thanks,
byk.

Your employer and attorney should be able to handle that. If you don't have a US degree, an education eval is almost mandatory.

Nothing to worry about. Your employer can take care of it. Education evals can cost from $150-400 depending on who is doing it.

evaluation was done on professor/university letterhead. No expert opinion letter.

evaluation was done on professor/university letterhead. No expert opinion letter.

Thanks. Even I have a 4 years BE degree in computer science but still got this rfe. Initially my employer thought of getting expert letter but now changed plan. He is just getting education evaluation from morning side. The professor is the director of a design school and his evaluation will be on morning side letterhead and not on university/professor letterhead. Do you recommend getting evaluation from a computer systems professor and on university/professor letterhead?And do u recommend getting expert letter as well? Pls suggest as little time left.
