I imagine this indicates that you can't count co-op work experience under CEC.

"...Any period of employment when the applicant was engaged in full-time study will not be included in calculating the period of qualifying work experience (e.g., work experience gained through co-op work permits, off-campus work permits while a full-time student and on-campus work permits)..."

Thanks to reply.

But, I am asking about federal skilled worker class not canadian experience class, federal skilled worker in which one has at least 67 points and at least 1 year of experience in skill o, A, B it does not matter where it will be in canada or any other country. but, I am not sure will it be counted for getting points or it will be treated same as CEC?


Thanks

Answered this already on PM to the OP.

Canadian work experience is useful only under CEC and that too only after 1 year of full-time (or equivalent part time) in NOC 0/A/B provided it isn't acquired during full-time studies. Any Canadian experience will automatically be counted for CEC purposes and non-Canadian (foreign) work experience for FSWP purposes.
