Hi guys, I have this particular situation and thought maybe some of you may have some good insights to share.

I have this full time job offer upon graduation. However, this job offer contains a rotational program within the firm. This means I will need to spend 4 months in Toronto office, 4 months in the US office and 4 months in UK office. I'm wondering if the hours I work in US and UK will be counted towards the CEC program (i.e. the 1 year work experience threshold)? I'm trying to decide if I should accept the offer as it's an amazing opportunity but I don't know if it's worth it if it won't be counted towards the CEC program.

Thank you in advance for answering!

Only work hours done in canada will be counted for CEC . As you see its canadian experience class . Work experience outside of canada is counted as foreign work experience

Thank you! And work experience less than a year doesn't add any points on CRS record right - just double checking. Thanks a lot.
