Working and Staying in Canada After Graduation

International students place post-graduation benefits as an important factor when deciding where to stay. Canada’s foreign-worker policies and post-graduate work programs make it possible for international students to work in Canada after they graduate, and give Canada a competitive advantage over other international education destinations.
The experience international graduates gain – and the income derived – from this employment is important to offset their family’s investment and help repay their study loans. The work experience gained after graduation can also help international students qualify for permanent residence in Canada.

Post Graduate Work Permit

The post-graduation work permit (PGWP) allows students who have graduated from eligible programs at designated learning institutions (DLIs) to gain valuable Canadian work experience.
Did you know that not all programs at a DLI make students eligible for PGWP? To find out which post-secondary institutions are DLI, and which of their programs are eligible for PGWP, review the Designated Learning Institution List .
Students graduating from a 2+ year PGWP-eligible academic program can work up to three years following their period for study. Students in an 8-month to 2-year program can obtain a PGWP that is valid for up to the same length as their study program. For example, if a student completed a 9-month program, a work permit may be issued for up to 9-months. Students in a program that is less than 8-months in duration are not eligible for PGWP.PGWP requirements and eligibility criteria can change at any time. Always refer to the Government of Canada website  for the most accurate information.
