Co-operative Education
Cooperative Education (Co-op) provides secondary students with valuable experiential learning to apply, refine and extend their learning from the classroom into the community. Co-op allows students to earn secondary school credits while completing a work experience placement in the community.
- The Co-op course begins with an in-school pre-placement learning plan to ready students for the community experience.
- Students work with the Cooperative Education Teacher to find a community work experience that aligns with their interests and skills.
- Students are monitored, assessed and evaluated by the Cooperative Education teacher and ongoing feedback is provided from the placement supervisor or employer.
- Most Co-op placements are designed as half-day programs.
