  • You will only get a work permit after graduation IF you apply for one. That is, either a Post Grad Work Permit if your Canadian education is eligible OR an employer-tied Work Permit.
  • You are only allowed to work up to 20 hours per week during your Study Permit's validity depending on your Study Permit's constraints.
  • Opting for a 2-year Diploma will provide you an opportunity to apply for a 3-year Post Grad. Work Permit (PGWP) after you graduate. Otherwise, you will only be able to apply for an 8-month PGWP with the certificate course if at all the certificate course is eligible for a PGWP.

In the future, please post threads in the appropriate forum section. Thank you.
