读魁北克Training课程是否需要申请实习工签？

经常有学生在临毕业的实习阶段跑来问我，“猴君，实习阶段需不需要申请实习工签（co-op work permit）啊？” 

我比较惊讶的是这些童鞋在当时拿到training录取函的时候都没有认真阅读Offer上的信息，在各大教育局下发的offer上都有这样一行字：

“This program has a mandatory field experience competency which necessitates that you apply for a Co-op work permit.”

从字面上的意思来看，这个实习工签是完成课程的必要文件，那么我们看看CIC对Co-op如何解释：

问：As an international student, can I take part in co-op and internship programs?

作为一名国际学生，我能否参与Co-op实习项目？

答：If you are in an academic, professional or vocational training program at a designated learning institution that requires work experience, such as a co-op or internship placement, you will need a work permit as well as a study permit.

如果你是学术类、专业类或是职业培训类并且在符合CIC指定的教育机构学习，而你就读的项目需要工作经验，例如Co-op，实习等，你将需要申请工作许可以及学习许可。

To get a work permit, you must prove that the work experience is essential to completing your program. Acceptable proof could include a letter from the school you are attending or a copy of the school curriculum.

为获得工作许可，你必须证明工作经验是完成你所就读项目的必要条件。可接受的证明材料包括学校证明信和课程说明。

The work experience cannot be more than 50% of your total program of study.

工作经验总时长不得超过总项目的50%

If you are studying English or French as a second language (ESL/FSL), or participating in general interest or preparatory courses, you are not eligible for a co-op work permit.

如果你正在就读英语或是法语的语言课程（ESL或FSL），或是预科类课程，你并不符合申请Co-op work permit的条件。

也就是说就读职业培训（training）课程，如果你的项目里包含实习课程，那么你必须申请Co-op工签。一些学校可能对国际学生的Co-op work permit政策不是很了解，所以学生问到后的回答经常是模棱两可，但保险起见，作为一名合格的毕业生，Co-op工签还是申请为妙，何况Co-op work permit是免费的。
