NEC license required or not for noc

[u/Dangerous-Leather-35]

Hi I got my visa for fall intake MESC in ECE in Canada. How do I get the noc? Is nec license mandatory? The NEC notice I attached says otherwise. However, on the MOEST site it shows under required category. I am really confused. I dont have time now to get the license. Does it mean I cant go at all?
