What qualifies as Canadian work experience for the Canadian Experience Class?

For the Canadian Experience Class, qualifying work experience includes any skilled work (classified under NOC 0, A, or B) accumulated in Canada on a valid work permit. You must have at least one year of full-time (or an equivalent in part-time) work experience within the last three years. Self-employment and work experience gained while you were a full-time student (such as co-op terms) do not count.
