Hello,

I'm very confusing about "You must have at least 12 months of full-time, or an equal amount in part-time, skilled work experience. Full-time work means at least 30 hours of paid work per week."

I have one year full-time in a school (French immersion), which means only 10 months. During my past three years, before my full-time position in the school, I also worked as a French teacher but it was only 15 hours per week.
I'm wondering if my part-time working hours (15hours per week) will be counted for CEC?

Thanks,

Yes. To calculate the full-time equivalent (FTE), add up all your part-time hours and divide by 30.

For example, if you worked 15 hours per week for 16 weeks, that would be 240 hours. Divide by 30, the FTE is 8 weeks. Add that to the number of weeks you worked full-time. You need a total of 52 weeks to qualify.
