Canada’s Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) eligibility list for non-degree programs includes 920 approved fields of study. These were selected for their connection to occupations with long-term labour shortages and alignment with Canada’s Express Entry priorities.
This update follows new rules introduced in late 2024 requiring students in non-degree programs (such as diplomas or certificates) to graduate from a program in an eligible field to receive a PGWP. Students who applied before June 25, 2025, remain eligible under the list at the time of their application.
Below is a complete list of the 920 PGWP-eligible fields of study, organised by major categories.

FAQ
1. What is the purpose of Canada’s PGWP eligibility list?
The list ensures that international graduates from non-degree programs are trained in areas with real labour market demand, improving their chances of securing work and permanent residence.
2. Who needs to study in an eligible PGWP field?
Only students in non-degree programs (like diplomas or certificates) who applied for a study permit on or after November 1, 2024, must study in one of the listed fields.
3. Do degree-level students need to worry about this list?
No. Students in bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral programs remain automatically eligible for a PGWP regardless of their field of study.
4. What if my program was removed after I applied?
You are still eligible if your study permit application was submitted before the June 25, 2025 update and your program was on the list at that time.
5. Why did Canada link PGWP eligibility to specific fields?
The aim is to match graduate talent with occupations that Express Entry targets for permanent residence, ensuring study-permit holders can fill genuine, persistent labour gaps in health care, education and skilled trades.
GWP-eligible fields of study list on the IRCC’s official website or through the designated learning institution (DLI) you plan to attend.
