Resurrection Catholic Secondary School offers a University Cooperative Education Program (UCEP), where students in either grade 12 or 13 spend their first semester at the University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University or St. Jerome's University. The student is then able to gain a co-op position with a professor on any of these campuses. The Waterloo Catholic Secondary School Board offers a program known as High Skills Major. In this program, the student will receive a number of certifications and will be able to attend courses related to a specific career path such as health and wellness. The student will also take certain courses in their upper years (grade 11 and 12) relating to this career path. For example, in health and wellness a student would have to take some science courses. It is also a necessity to take co-op, and to receive a placement in the career of the student's choice. Once all these requirements are met, students who participated in the program will receive a designation on their diploma.
