After completing an MBA abroad, will the student get a chance to work and stay there in Canada?

Yes, after completing an MBA abroad, you can usually work and stay in the country, as long as you meet that country’s work permit or visa requirements.
For Canada, international graduates can apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), which allows you to work full-time for any employer. The PGWP duration depends on your program length:
- Less than 8 months: Not eligible
- 8 months to 2 years: PGWP matches program length
- 2 years or more: PGWP up to 3 years
These policies are subject to change.
