But I received one offer letter from Conestoga college in project management but the course is of 1 year only if I complete that course and study another year in any other 1 year program will I get 3 year work permit or not ? I can't wait for another intake . Please help me ...

The guidelines say may be issued with a PGWP upto 3 years there are no guarantees and each case I expect is assessed individually. Nobody here can say one way or the other whether you will or will not get a 3 years PGWP beyond what is detailed in the official guidance. There are people who just do 1 or 2 year courses and for whatever reason get turned down for a PGWP so never any guarantee.

Also note you cannot work in the time between 2 separate courses given that is not considered a scheduled course break.
