So you have no work experience at all? You aren’t eligible without work experience. For Federal Skilled Workers, you need one year of continuous , skilled work experience in one NOC. For CEC, you need a year of Canadian work experience. So you aren’t eligible for EE. PNP programs require work experience too.

I do have co-op and part time experience but they don't consider that

Canadian !! If I get a job offer?
You need work experience in a skilled profession.

I assume you have a 3 year PGWP? How long is it still valid for?

Hi scylla, Do you have any insight on good colleges in ontario for one year IT post grad programs ?
I don't.

However make sure it's a public college (stay away from all private colleges).

Also I would strongly recommend against taking just a 1 year program if the aim is to get PR. Take a 2 year program.

Same, it's so hard to get a job now. I wonder how all those new grads get their jobs, I'm a recent grad as well

Agree it can be tough with how things are going on lately.
There might be a chance if you were working PT, the aim is to get a FT position with your previous employer and atleast qualify for PNP, CEC.
