I am concerned about the conversion of student visa to work permit while studying in a non designated institue
If you secure a job offer and your employer obtains an approved LMIA, you can certainly apply for a closed work permit. Approval of the work permit is not guaranteed. But you can certainly apply with a job offer + approved LMIA.
If you graduate from a non DLI then You aren’t eligible for a PGWP. When you graduate you will need a LMIA and the closed work permit.
