Confusion on NOC and Work hours

Hello Guys,

I have a question regarding part time work during my undergrad course. I used to work almost 24 hours each week , and I worked for 18 months. So in total my work hours was : 24*4*18= 1728 hours. So can you please kindly provide me information, whether I can get points for 1 year work experience ? As per cic website it must be 1565 hours to be considered for 1 year work experience.

Similarly, I worked on 2 different field of occupation/job title (18 months as health educator on part time basis (24 hrs/week) and 20 months as a college teacher (40 hrs/week)), however both of them are under NOC "A". So while filling EE profile can we use both of them so that I can claim points for 3 years or I can only choose one job title ?

Similarly, one of the job that I mentioned above was done by me while pursuing my undergrad degree. I worked as a health educator in NGO but I did that job at the same time when I was doing my undergrad degree. This job comes under NOC 4165. The descriptions provided on CIC website mentioned following employment requirements for health educator

Employment requirements
- A bachelor's degree or college diploma in health science, public administration, recreation administration or hospital administration, or a bachelor's degree in social science, is required.
- A graduate degree in health, social science or an administrative discipline may be required.
- Several years of experience in the health field as a health care professional or as a community or social service worker are usually required.

Can you please kindly suggest me if my educational level at the time of that particular job really matters or still I can claim points for that part time job?

Did you work over 20'/hours per week during school? You also can't count count part-time work while studying towards your PR work requirement.

I believe this was outside of Canada - not inside of Canada. If it was outside of Canada, then it can be counted as work experience.

Yes I was in India during my undergrad program and I used to work 24-26 hours/week at that time period.
