Saskatchewan Experience: Students
This Saskatchewan Experience sub-category is for international students who graduated from a designated learning institution in Saskatchewan and are working in the province in their field of study. Graduates who studied in another province are no longer eligible under the Saskatchewan Experience pathways. For 2026 the SINP has reserved a minimum of 750 nominations for Saskatchewan DLI graduates with job offers in priority sectors.
