Hi Guys,

I have earned one year Master's Degree as a distance learner from UK. While doing the Masters I was a full time employee. So in the section of education history, Shall I mention UK or the country in which I have been residing ?

Will be there any type of conflict between work history and education history, given I'm claiming points for both in the same period of time ?

Country where you resided. Also:

"Applicants are instructed to indicate that their education was completed by correspondence by typing in brackets {by correspondence} on the same line as the education institution name found in the Education Background Information tab of GCMS. The discretion remains with the officer to decide if a police certificate is required for the country of the education institution"

But correspondence is different than distance learning. Do you think I should mention (Distance learning) instead ?
Also, can I claim point for both working experience and education in the same time?

By correspondence is usually sufficient, you are free to provide a LOE regarding the fact that it was distance learning.

I've got a similar situation. My employer is in location A, I'm working onsite at location B. So my work history would state that my employer is at location A right? Or location B.
