Work Ratio (50%+ Requirement): Professional work (whether self-sourced employment, contract work, or structured internships) must constitute at least 50% of the total time period assigned to your period of Interworking. The remaining time may comprise language study, skill development and independent travel.

4. Cancellation & Refund Policy

You fail to complete the required 7 learning modules.
Your workplace supervisor refuses or fails to sign off on your verification form.
