Just increased my score to 478 by adding 1.5yr internship. Did not know that internship could count as working experience. Missed the opportunities in October and November. Hope this would not be too late!

Was your internship done while on study/student visa? If yes, then it does not count.
If your internship was done outside of Canada or on a work visa in Canada then you can claim it.

That counts for me as it was done in China, both education and internship.

Answer is already in what I wrote! (Canadian Education of one year I guess)
Hey, Canadian education gets you 15-30 points depending on the education you signed up for. But the score increase you got could be for other reasons as well. Did you complete another year of work experience?
Double check all the information, before you receive the invite.

Canadian Education of one year gives you only 15 points. Maybe you had another year of work experience?

Are you saying that my 16 month intern can be counted as Canadian work experience If I had a work permit while I was intern? (holding a study permit at same time)

Any official links? Many thanks

Ya - that's my thoughts too but was confused by the outland intern case. Maybe he completed the intern after graduation.
