Hi,

On the official CIC website, there is no mentioned rule on PGWP after pursuing two 1 academic year courses.
(http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/work-postgrad-who.asp)

Hence, there's no guarantee of a 3 years PGWP after pursuing two full time 1 academic year (2 sem/8 months of actual study) programs provided, each academic year is of atleast 28-30 credits/credit load or more. You may or may not get. You can be assured of a 2 year PGWP though. It really depends on luck. Ultimately it's up to the Visa officer issuing your PGWP.


Best of Luck.

You get 2 years PGWP. Most of my friend got it.

Good Luck.

Hi,

If a PG diploma/certificate of 1 academic year is followed by a University Master's degree of 1 year, then you will be eligible for a 3 years PGWP.

If you're mentioning to example -2
Then read it properly.
It says 1 degree + 1 year diploma = 4+1 years.
And he is asking about 1+1 year course.
 
From Fanshawe College they confirmed me that, by doing two program I will get 3 years work permit. Though in offer letter they mention that my study length is 2 years, but personally I know that I will get two different certificates.

and what does it mean-

Revised program criteria

Students holding a one-year graduate degree, diploma or certificate from a participating institution in Canada after having obtained, within the prior two years, a certificate, a diploma or degree from a participating institution in Canada may qualify for a three-year work permit.
