Pre-Placement Orientation 

“Prior to their placements, all Cooperative Education students must demonstrate an understanding of the pre-placement orientation expectations, as well as of the related expectations in the compulsory Grade 10 Career Studies course”.  Pre-placement orientation should also include an initial teacher conference regarding the content of the student’s Personalized Placement Learning Plan (PPLP).
