Hello People, Thanks for your help before hand. I have this situation
I am in Canada and just graduated from Mechanical Engineering Technology Program (3 year diploma) after all this hard work I realized that I cannot obtain my PGWP because I left for some time, came back to finish and some semesters I wasn't a full time student; as you may know, this makes me ineligible.
I just got a job at the college where I studied, as an assistant researcher, but now I'm stuck without a work permit.
I was thinking if it was possible to take a welding certificate (1 year) (or any other 1 year short course) to obtain that PGWP so I can work here in Canada and probably get the PR in the future.

Is this a possibility?

Any other suggestions? I still have 4 months of study permit left.

Thanks for your help.

Regards
