Express Entry Invited Candidates: Reproducibility Lab (2026)

Abstract

A free, self-guided spreadsheet exercise using an archived, official IRCC invited-candidate data release (2015 to July 31, 2026). Ten calculation questions and three interpretation prompts teach reproducible aggregation, rounded and suppressed data handling, and responsible statements about what invitation counts cannot show. Links to the official dataset, methodology and the archived research record are provided. This is an educational exercise, not an academic peer-reviewed study or immigration advice.
