The Manitoba International Education Stream accommodates Manitoba graduates and facilitates their provincial nomination. The three pathways include Career Employment Pathway, Graduate Internship Pathway, and International Student Entrepreneur Pilot.
The Career Employment Pathway provides faster nomination pathways for graduates seeking long-term employment in Manitoba in an in-demand occupation related to their training. Eligible applicants must apply immediately after graduating and obtaining a job offer.
The pathway provides faster nomination routes for international student master and doctoral graduates through internships contributing to industry innovation in Manitoba.
