Co-operative Education

The Community is Your Classroom

Co-operative Education courses help students plan their education, immersing students in career exploration and on the job experiences while they are still in school.  Co-operative Education is available as an academic course in high schools in Nova Scotia and it provides valuable real world exposure for students.

Students who participate in co-op will have the opportunity to understand the workplace and gain the knowledge, skills and attitudes they need to succeed in a career.
