Welcome to CTE550 - Organization of Diversified Cooperative Work Study Programs.

I hope you have completed the full registration process by:

1. Adding your name to the Google survey

2. Filling out the Graduate School application

3. Submitting your check for $65

4. Sending your transcript to the Office of Continuing Professional Studies.

I am not part of the registration process. Therefore, I don’t have access to find out if your application is complete. However, as soon as Sean Connors sends me a list of enrolled students, I will pass it on to you.

We will be using the NYS Manual for Work-based Learning Programs. There is no charge for this manual and I have attached it to this email. If you have time before the course officially begins on Monday, January 25^th, please take the opportunity to read section 1
