Co-operative Education

Cooperative Education (Co-op) is an experiential learning opportunity for students in Grades 11 and 12 to try out a job and see how it fits!

All Ontario cooperative education programs have specific requirements. Students will need to plan ahead in order to ensure that there is room to accommodate Co-op in their timetable. For more information, make an appointment to speak with a Guidance Counsellor.

In most cases, co-op placements will take place during either the morning, the afternoon or the full school day, and extend over one semester (5 months). Co-op placements can sometimes be longer in duration depending on the employer’s and student’s needs and interests.
