Please find the link below where it is mentioned "You can count part-time work toward the work experience requirement, as long as you were not a full-time student at the time."Carmageddon said:Can you please explain where from did you get the highlighted in red quote? Its not from the link you gave.
I also believe this information, is relevant for CEC particularly those who studied and worked at the same time.
I for example, forked full time (foreign work experience) in the last 5 years, of which 3 years I studies FULL TIME as well (Evening studies).
So what you say does not make any sense.. its not sensible for my 3 years of full time work not to count, just because I was studying full time during the evening hours after work
Furthermore, if it was true, I believe it would be in a violation of equality towards the people (I am not a lawyer, but sure there is something about this) - no reason to discriminate those who did not have "life" because they were busy doing both things at once, compared to those who separated work and studies...
