Will Trainee experience counted to CEC?

[DannyBo]

Hi All,

I started with a consulting company as a trainee. The trainee is a salaried (12.5 $/hr), full-time position. After a three-month training period, I was placed as an IT consultant in a bank.

The training is a pure learning period - learning skills, writing tests, obtaining certificates and going for interviews. I do not know if I can use my trainee experience for my CEC application.

Could anyone advise?

Thanks in advance.

Depends whether this was a skilled position (NOC 0, A or B) or not.

IT consultant is a skilled position. the trainee is called IT consultant trainee. As I mentioned, trainee is a learning position, no real work at all. but from what I think, the trainee period for a skilled position should be counted.
That's why I asked this question.

Thanks

The answer is simple. Ask yourself whether you performed the duties/responsibilities of the NOC chosen.
