2 PostGrad Certificates = 2 years of PG Work Permit?

[fabioadias]

Guys, I've been researching a lot everything related to CEC and I have a question.

If I take 2 postgraduate courses (certificates) in a row that will equal 2 years of full-time studies. Would that count for CEC?

And also, if I take those two courses in a row, like I said, would I be able to apply for 2 years of Post Graduate Work Permit?

Thank you!

unfortunately, no.

a one-year Master’s program ([b]certificates and diplomas cannot be counted[/b]) and an additional year of education, obtained in Canada, before admission into the one-year program (for a total of two years).

Thanks, Jes. That helps a lot.

you're welcome - mind you, I'm not sure about the PGWP - you might still get 3 years...
