From November 1, 2024, all applicants for the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) will need to meet updated language proficiency standards. The new rules require:

• University Graduates: A minimum Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) or Niveaux de compétence linguistique canadiens (NCLC) score of 7.

• College Graduates: A minimum CLB/NCLC score of 5.

These changes emphasize the importance of language skills for professional success in Canada. Employers value strong communication abilities, and the updated PGWP requirements align with labor market demands.

What This Means for Students:

• Preparing for language tests early is essential to meet the standards.

• Understanding which tests (IELTS, CELPIP, or TEF) align with the CLB/NCLC scale is crucial.

• Delays in meeting language requirements could affect PGWP eligibility.
