Hello everyone,
I want to attend the Casino Dealer Training which is held by a casino.
But there is something said in my OWP paper:

4.unless authorized, prohibited from attending any educational institution and taking any academic, professional or vocational training courses.

Then how can i get authorized??
Is there anyone met this situation before?

Thank you very much

If the training is six months or less - you can attend without getting any authorization. If the training is more than six months, you need a study permit.

The Casino Dealer Training only takes 4 weeks. It seems good according to your answers.

I hope the casino recruiter won't say anything about this condition when they check my OWP.

It is very kind of you two to answer my question!

:D :D

It clearly states:

You do not need a study permit if you plan to take a course or program in Canada that lasts six months or less. You must complete the course or program within the period authorized for your stay in Canada.
