My friend who is based in winnipeg says it can take up to 7 years to receive professional license. They might ask you to do volunteer work, pass their exams etc. Here is one such organization for engineers : APEGM

Good day everyone! I am new here and been searching this kind of forum since the day I applied for EOI-SW. I've read the entire conversation and been very helpful and positive. I just hope all of us here will soon get their LAA. My score is a bit lower than your scores here but I am positive enough that MPNP will give everyone a fair share since all of us were accepted and qualified to apply. A matter of right time probably. Good luck everyone and congratulations to those who received their LAA. God bless us all!

Frank, the +50 points is for all applicants regardless of the type of connection they may have to Manitoba as long as their destination is outside Winnipeg.
"In addition to Adaptability points, you may also score points for Regional Immigration for having a connection to, and planning to settle in, a region of Manitoba outside the city of Winnipeg."
