Now, I just posted the same
quesion in the Visitor forum so kick me if this is no ok/counts as spam.

I am on a visitor visa. Waiting to apply for common law and through that a work visa, but it will be another
4 + 4 months until we apply/hopefully recieve WP so I was thinking about doing some online studying throughout that time. Just short courses to add to the field Id like to work in (wellness, sports).
So im just wanting to make sure that this is ok in my situation.
I know it says that you can study up to 6 months without a study permit/visa; do the same rules apply to online studies? Or could I study for longer if its online/not full time/not through a Canadian school?

Thanks!

Yes, you can. You do not need a study permit for online courses.
