Discuss the academic requirements for the Internship and your learning goals with your faculty supervisor and get their signature on the internship registration form. Prepare a learning agreement plan in consultation with your faculty sponsor and on-site supervisor. The faculty supervisor does the evaluation and grants the academic credit and grade at the end of the term or upon completion of your internship. Co-op Ed jobs are flexible and can begin and end anytime. During the school term, students typically work an average of 10-20 hours per week.
Employment can range from a few months to continuing one to three years.

Ed transcript notation acknowledges the learning and academic value of a work-based learning experience. It is a non-credit recognition and there is no registration fee.
