Well, its very beneficial to have a co op in your course of study.The following are the benefits :-P.S said:hello guys?
If anyone of you have any views on benifits of co-op( internship) prog. thn plz let me know. Is it helpful for getting job after completion of study?????
Well its around 500 $ for each work term.Also I am even a student like you, I feel if you have already have a got a MBA then why go to college for a post graduate diploma ? A lot of persons get rejection for this very basis, but still its depends on your luck as many have got their visa too.I would suggest wait for a expert reply from enfield royalsting etc !P.S said:thx a lot mahred,
ya that thing i know that v have to pay 1000 CAD$ extra fo co-op course.
There is one pg course in centennial college that is-international business management-1 year with co-op (may intake).....What u think,is it good for me....

Like the other post said it paid and its a sweet good pay.
Second and the most important, you gain the experience you can put on your resume which will be really useful to get a job after you graduate and eventually your PR.

'eventually your PR'
Co op work hours are not counted as your work experience, if you need to apply for PR.
alright, but they don't get counted for federal applications or they do ?enfield said:Hi,
Co op work hours count as your work experience only under Saskatchewan PNP program (International graduates).
Hi,Maherd said:alright, but they don't get counted for federal applications or they do ?
Well, yes even I heard of that Manitoba PNP . Many students find it difficult to get P.R. in federal category, so the ones already there suggest to apply for Saskatchewan rather than Ontario or any other province. At least I got one such suggestion.enfield said:Hi,
No, it's not applicable under federal.
but this Sask program looks more like a pilot program. Even there was a similar program under Manitoba PNP where there was no requirement for a job offer, but due to "heavy rush" they simply closed it.
Here you goP.S said:What is this Saskatchewan? I've no idea about this so,please let me know seniors.
What I ment was, he will use the experience gained during study to get a job after graduation using which will eventually lead to his PR not the co-op exp. for PR @MaherdMaherd said:Sorry, but I need to correct 1 thing...I quote

Co op work hours are not counted as your work experience, if you need to apply for PR. Though they lead to a good job.And a good job would lead to a PR. Thanks and sorry draxz1289 no hard feelings![]()

OP: getting a co-op job is your responsibility just like getting a job after graduation but the college or the uni does help by posting co-op specific jobs. My friend just got a co-op interview at KPMG which is a huge MNC and I did my co-o at the college's alumni office for two terms with 16/hr pay and graduated then found a job and did my one year to gain the exp for the Canadian Experience Class category to apply for my residency and applied for it in August and got my medical.... so yeah the co-op option is good but you have to start looking for the co-op job soon and get it.
