Canada IAP

Does anyone know if the Canadian intern program has limitations on credit for work done during a Master's program? I know they limit how much you can claim while in undergrad, but what if your professional degree is a mater's degree?
Thanks!

you can log up to 1880 hours in the discretionary category, which includes post-grad work. if you have an m.arch professional degree, this wouldn't count as post-grad. the thing is, by the time you've completed all the other categories, you would likely have accumulated that 1880 hours through work experience, so any post-grad experience becomes irrelevant.

Just to clarify, I don't mean post-grad experience. I mean experience interning for a firm while doing a professional master's degree.

If I recall you can go back and claim some of the hours of work prior to your actual registration for interning, I think I claimed about six months worth of work.

then that work would fit into the 1880 hours i mentioned above, on the form it is listed as "undergraduate experience" in the discretionary (E) category.
