Good day all.

Please can I claim work experience before graduation?
This is the scenario below. I am a Pharmacist(a regulated profession), so after my final exams, I started working in a Community Pharmacy and my duties were same as a licensed/graduated pharmacist but it was still under the supervision of the superintendent pharmacist. I worked there for about 10months before I was inducted and given my school certificate, this delay was as a result of administrative procedures from my school. I understand that IRCC allows for work experience as a student as long as it is continuous, paid and meets other requirements. I also know that according to IRCC, one of the minimum requirements to practice in NOC 3131-Pharmacist is a Bachelor Degree and license.

So my question is can I claim the work experience before my graduation?
What can one advice me to do?

You can count work experience from the time you applied for your PGWP.
