You can only apply to extend your work permit under the
Home Child Care Provider or Home Support Worker Pilots if: your work permit was issued for less than 36 months because your passport was expiring, and you now have a new passport. In this case, you may be able to apply to extend your work permit up to a total of 36 months from the date it was issued.
For example, if we issued you a work permit that’s valid for 24 months, you may be able to extend it for another 12 months.
To avoid having to do this, make sure your passport or travel document is valid for at least 36 months before you apply.

Internships offer usually one discipline-specific, supervised, structured paid or unpaid, and for academic credit work experience or practice placement.
Work Experience intersperses one or two work terms (typically full-time) into an academic program, where work terms provide experience in a workplace setting related to the student’s field of study and/or career goals.
Community Service Learning (CSL) integrates meaningful community service with classroom instruction and critical reflection to enrich the learning experience and strengthen communities. In practice, students work in partnership with a community-based organization to apply their disciplinary knowledge to a challenge identified by the community.
Field Placement provides students with an intensive part-time/short term intensive hands-on practical experience in a setting relevant to their subject of study. Field placements may not require supervision of a registered or licensed professional and the completed work experience hours are not required for professional certification. Field placements account for work-integrated educational experiences not encompassed by other forms, such as co-op, clinic, practicum, and internship.
