Canada Coop Work Permit

Work as a co-op student or intern – Co-op or Internship Work Permit

Index

Introduction

The full name of CO-OP is Co-operative education. We often call it an internship, but in fact, there is still a difference between CO-OP and internship. Internship refers to an internship job, which is not necessarily related to the school and the major you study. contact. However, the CO-OP is to come forward by the school to provide you with a job that matches your major.

The characteristic of CO-OP is that it is completely in line with the major you are studying. The school will provide many job opportunities, and students who apply for CO-OP will be assigned to some work internship opportunities (note that you can only get assignment opportunities when you apply for CO-OP opportunities. ), if the students are very interested in the assigned opportunities, they can go to internship through the opportunity of CO-OP. Take UBC as an example, UBC has a dedicated website to support students’ access to CO-OP. CO-OP is an extra fee at most schools, but if the school can’t find a suitable internship opportunity for you, then you don’t have to pay this fee.

CO-OP is a very good opportunity. Students who have the ability must apply. The experience of CO-OP will make employment easier. The work experience of CO-OP will give students a great advantage in employment. After all, work experience is far better than a blank sheet of paper. More importantly, if you work as an intern in a company for a long time, the students will accumulate a certain network of contacts. After the official graduation, they can become regular employees without even having to recruit. In any aspect, CO-OP is a very useful project, and students must not miss this opportunity.

Q&A

Q: I want to apply for an co-op work permit, but my study permit is about to expire. What should I do?

A: The 2 has no conflict. You can apply for a study permit and an co-op work permit at the same time. Please note that the prerequisite for applying for an internship work permit is that you have a study permit, so please pay attention to its validity period.

Q: I applied for a job offer outside Canada, can I apply for a co-op work permit?

A:Normally this is not possible, but due to COVID-19, many students are taking online classes abroad. The Canadian government allows students to conduct CO-OP overseas. As long as the work unit allows the CO-OP program and the school allows this program, students can work remotely or work in a Canadian overseas unit.
