The Cooperative Education Advisory Committee serves an integral role in the growth and success of the program. The committee, formed in December 1992, is composed of members representing the business and education communities.
Members provide direction for the program with data about job openings and employment trends.
They help market the program to students and employers through special events. Professional development seminars for co-op students are planned and presented by committee members each fall and spring semester. In 1996, the State Council on Vocational Education recognized the Scottsdale Community College Cooperative Education Advisory Committee as the most Outstanding Local Advisory Council in Arizona .
