Can you hold a work permit AND a study permit?

[kbaqua]

Hi guys,

Does anyone know if you can combine work and study visas? Or are you only able to do one at a time? I am applying for a temp work visa as have job lined up. But while I'm over would like to take some modules in education/teaching at a local uni. Do I need a study visa to do this? It would be a part time course obviously but don't know how long it would be.

Any ideas??

Thanks so much,

;D

You can't hold a study permit and work permit at the same time.

Exceptions to study permits (i.e. situations where you do not need a study permit) are listed here:
