Hi there everyone,

I hope you can help me to define whether I can count my scholarship to UBC as a visiting lecturer with my salary was paid from my home university count as Canadian work experience.. I entered the country with work visa (LMIA exempt). However, I did not get paid by the Canadian University but through a scholarship from my home institution. However, it was a full-time visit and paid BUT not paid by the Canadian University (as I said before). Can I consider this as a work experience in Canada for the Express Entry? Thank you for the help :)
