Overlapping Education and Work Experience

[vikram7684]

I completed my MBA Distance between 2014-2016 and have also worked as marketing support during the same time duration. Can I get points for both the education and work experience in this case or will only one of these be counted?

Yes you can, only if you were studying outside Canada. Good luck!

Thanks Noscaf, I did my MBA from INDIA. I asked this question because several agents have told me either my MBA or Experience would be counted.

Indeed, many consultants opine the same that education during professional work is not considered. Kindly clarify the same. Waiting to hear from the forum.

as per the above, they will be counted as long as you weren't studying in canada

Thanks Nosc

Thanks for the kind reply. I hope it will be considered.
Do you suggest that we add a paragraph in the LoE about this?

Thanks in advance.

you can but no need, if you insist i'd suggest adding a sentence not a paragraph. don't make your LOE too long and always put yourself in the agent's shoes. complicating things for nothing is pointless, stay straightforrward
