Work experience in government, business, industry and human services enhances a student's academic training. This valuable experience is documented on a student's official transcript.
Most employers use the Co-op concept as a recruiting tool.
They frequently hire graduates from their own co-op programs, since they already know the capabilities and work habits of those they have trained. While one student works, the other attends school. They trade places each spring, summer, and fall term. There is a registration fee each work term, and a grade is assigned based upon a work report that must be submitted. Some employers reimburse a student for the registration fee.
