your co-op job doesn't count towards your work experience in EE. so It's a "NO".

Work experience gained while studying in Canada does not count. In any other country, it's fine.

But if the work experience was part of your studies (eg. an internship or a practical placement), it doesn't count.

A reference letter from your supervisor or HR, on company letterhead, which states the employment period, positions held, duties and responsibilities, annual salary (and benefits), and number hours worked per week.
You can also include employment contracts, payslips, promotion letters, etc. But the reference letter is the important one.

What about an internship after graduation and was paid? Does this count as foreign work experience?
If the internship was not part of your education, it will count as foreign work experience.

Could you please clarify more??
Was this internship done as part of the graduation course completion or did the internship give you any points for graduation, or was it a requirement for degree certificate to be issued?

The internship was done after graduation and it is not mentioned that i received my certificate after completing the internship.
