Does experience gained through co-op count towards Federal Skilled Worker (FSWP)

[RUK]

Hi there,

Does experience gained through co-op work terms count towards Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)?

P.S. I understand that the work experience you can use to apply for the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) must not have been gained while studying full-time on a study permit (for example, experience gained while on a co-op work term).

Thank you

Hi,
I have the exact same question. Anyone know?

Work outside Canada can be counted if this Co-Op Work was paid and meets no of hours requirements.

If you are claiming these points for FSW as a Canadian experience than unfortunately, this will not work.
