Hi,

Most likely you are talking about co-op/internship related work permit. Am I right?

For such paid or unpaid co-op/internship job, you must apply for a work permit. All such jobs must be an essential part of
your course (you need a certificate from your school to prove it.) and your co-op/internship work MUST not be more than 50 % of
the total course.
