Hi

I got the ITA on October 15. I have a work experience of more than 7 years. I got the job in my first company through on-campus placement. The joining date arrived very late. There is a gap on 4 months between the final semester exams and the date of joining.
I did a 2 month training program (without stipend) in a company during this period and updated my development skills during these 4 months.
How should I declare this in Personal History section of PR application? Should I disclose training or can ignore it? Which option should I select in 'Activity type'?

If I declare my training period, will they ask for Reference Letter from this company?

You can call it training, might be good to indicate "unpaid" as well. (e.g. unpaid training, training - unpaid)

If I declare my training period, will they ask for Reference Letter from this company?
No, they will not ask for any letters unless it was in your Expression of Interest profile.

Thanks for replying. What should be the Activity Type? It should be 'Employment' or 'Organisation' or 'Unemployment'
