Canadian Experience Class (CEC)


The Canadian Experience Class (CEC) is designed for graduates and foreign workers who have gained one year of qualifying work experience in Canada. For international students who come to Canada with a student visa to study, they only need to complete relevant courses at a higher education institution recognized by the Canadian government, apply for a Canadian work permit with their graduation certificate, and apply for Canadian immigration after working for one year or more. From January 2015, all CEC applicants need to be registered, scored and invited in the federal Express Entry before they can submit an immigration application.
