Co-operative Education is an educational program that integrates classroom theory with practical experience in the workplace while earning two to four credits. Students will work at a location where they will gain hands-on experience tied to either one or two in-school courses they are currently taking or have taken previously. The program also prepares students for their school-to-work transition by increasing their understanding of workplace practices and skills, exploring occupational fields and industry sectors that are of interest to them, and by making informed educational career decisions. Students will have the opportunity to develop and enhance fundamental, personal, and teamwork skills.
This program assists students bound for university, college, apprenticeships, or the workplace. The program is unique in that it utilizes the resources in the community to enrich the educational experiences of the classroom setting. Please note that (2) co-op credits can be counted towards your compulsory credits.
