Hi,

Thanks a lot for reading my post.

For the CEC: It says you need to have 1 year of full-time or equivalent part-time work experience.

Now 1 year of full-time means 1560 hours. So, Is it 1560 hours in total or is it 52 weeks of full-time work? I am little confused.

Any idea?

You need to collect the hours over a minimum of one year. So collecting 1560 hrs in 9 months or even 11 months you wont be eligible

You need to work atleast one year full time. By saying full time, they mean atleast 30 hrs per week. It doesn't mean that you will be eligible before than one year even if you work more hours.
As far as I think, if you work less than 30 hrs in any week, it will be counted as part time and you need to work a bit more than one year depending on when you can compensate for those 30 hrs a week requirement.
