hey everyone
i want to apply for the express entry program, my job experience is:
teaching at the university (i am a phd student) with a contract (2 years and a half) 15 hours a week, i have the contracts to prove it, and the bank statement of salary, but the problem is we don't have work insurance. i have two questions :
1) is my work experience valid given that i didn't have work insurance ?
2) is the number of hours a problem ? knowing that professors usually work less then 40 hours a week, it's difficult to meet the requirement.
thank you in advance for answering my inquiry

1) It will not be a problem.
2) 15 hours/week will be considered part time work. So, it will be 1 year when you have 1560 hours of work experience.

What are your job hours? In most cases professors/ teachers teach certain number of hours, they also do student meetings, administrative work, prepare for lectures, research . This will make up full time job hours.

my job hours 15 hours a week, teaching, i do supervise in exams too, i thought 6 subjects, icluding a master's class of statistical software, 2.5 years doing this, i am not sure wether to include it as 2 years or 1 year, i fear it would less up my whole application if i get it wrong.
